  • How IT WORKS...

    1.

    Select an artwork or artist that speaks to you or that you feel connects to the tenets of your brand or business. We work directly with many of the artists that are displayed on our website, giving you the option to choose from an existing artwork, or to commission a piece to meet any specific requirements you may have.

    2.

    We will liaise with the artist on your behalf to establish licensing arrangements for exclusive rights to use the artwork in your Reconciliation Action Plan. You can also choose to purchase the original artwork to display in your office or place of business, or simply recieve the rights to the image.

    3.

    Once the necessary arrangements have been finalised, we can assist you process of designing your Reconciliation Action Plan and any other assets or paraphernalia you require - alternatively you can choose to design your RAP independently!

    License Authentic Aboriginal Art and Dot Paintings for Branding, Products AND EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES

     

    Licensing artworks gives you access to use an original piece of art for a variety of purposes, be it to enhance your branding and marketing efforts, for product design, or for educational purposes or resources!
     
    Gaining an official license for an artwork directly benefits the artist, giving them financial opportunities as another form of revenue beyond traditional art sales. It also protects artists' rights and integrity - preventing copyright infringement and allowing the artist to control how their art is used and reproduced. It also provides a wider audience for their artwork, increasing their exposure and potentially providing them with more opportunities with customers and brands.
     

    We were thrilled to assist arranging the licensing of a beautiful artwork by Pitjantjatjara artist Venita Woods for the cover of 'The Wonder of Little Things', a book written by Ngadjura elder Vince Copley with Lea McInerney. We also liaised with Warlpiri artist Patsy Ross to license one of her beautiful Yawulyu (Women's Body Painting) pieces for some completely unique compostable coffee cups. These are just two examples of what can be done with licensed artwork! Get in touch with us to discuss ideas of how to bring visual and design projects to life by licensing authentic and unique pieces of art - directly support Aboriginal artists in the process!

    This Is Aboriginal Art Gallery & Studio is based in Mparntwe (Alice Springs), the major hub within the vastness of Central Australia. We work with artists local to Mparntwe and from a variety of remote communities, and we understand the importance of self-determination in the way artists choose to work - be it from home, from an community arts centre, or from our on-site studio. We liaise with artists so they can choose when and how they would like to paint. 

     

    We emphasise the importance of creative freedom and autonomy for all artists, while knowing that many of the artists we work with are happy to accept commission requests and work to certain specifications.

     

    So, if you're looking for something in particular - a certain colour palette, size, or working to a certain budget - get in touch with us! We are happy to liase with artists to help you find the right piece to suit your home or business space.
