About the Artist:

Anthony Saltmere is an Aboriginal artist from the Gulf Country known for his unique hand carved artwork. He lives on Mornington Island with his partner, Chantel Harley, and they often travel around the Gulf and Northwest regions to connect with their heritage and communities.

Their art is all about respecting nature. They carefully choose materials using old methods passed down from their families. Anthony and Chantel want to honor their teachers and ancestors by sticking to these traditions that go back thousands of years.

Their artwork tells stories about their lives, people, and land. They use old techniques but also add modern touches to show who they are and to share their culture with everyone.

Anthony Saltmere and Chantel Harley hope that through their art, people will see how important ancient artefacts still are today. They want to show that these artefacts have meaning and value in our modern world.
