City of Darwin is proud to present the latest Lightbox Exhibition: Telstra NATSIAA Top End Artists, curated by the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory (MAGNT). This exhibition showcases 13 artworks from Territory artists who are winners and finalists in the 2025 Telstra National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Awards (NATSIAA).
Telstra NATSIAA is the longest-running awards program recognising the artistic excellence of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Now in its 42nd year, and with 34 years of sponsorship from Telstra, the Awards celebrate the significant ongoing contributions that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander practitioners make, while honouring culture, identity, and connection to Country.
The Lightbox Exhibition features work by acclaimed artists: Barbara Puruntatameri, Binygurr Wirrpanda, Charmaine Ashley, Dorothy Warrngarrknga Ganambarr, Lucy Yarawanga, Obed Namirrkki, Owen Yalandja, Pedro Wonaeamirri, Roger Yambeing, Sonia Gurrpulan Guyula, Wayilkpa Maymuru, Yalmakany Marawili, and Yinimala Gumana.
City of Darwin is thrilled to partner with MAGNT to present Telstra NATSIAA Top End Artists and continue to light up our city with local art for all to enjoy.
