“Working with Temaana, deadly one.”
Adelaide Festival Centre Foundation is proud to support Children's Artspace and its latest exhibition Who Are We?, a powerful visual representation of young First Nations people, their identities and individual journeys.
Led by proud Adnyamathanha, Narungga, Wangkangurru Yarluyandi sibling-duo Iteka Ukarla Sanderson-Bromley and Temaana Yundu Sanderson-Bromley, the exhibition showcases forty-six artists’ exploration of who they are as young South Australian Aboriginal people today.
Through a series of workshops at the South Australian Aboriginal Training Academy, Mark Oliphant College, and Le Fevre High School, young people explored their identities and personal stories through silk, canvas and ceramic mediums, resulting in a collection of artwork that reflects their unique perspectives and experiences.
Temaana and Iteka Nepabunna
We hope this project will be a pivotal step in these young people’s lives where they see their culture and heritage in a better and more positive light which only pride and respect shines through.
Getting to find out about different ways First Nations people create artwork, listening to other peoples’ stories, learning different ways to do the silk painting (layering, blending.)

The opportunity to work alongside Temaana and story tell through silk screen painting has been an invaluable experience for our students. The most amazing part was having time to yarn, share personal stories and get to know each other on a deeper level. Connection to culture and community through art immersion was an absolute highlight. Ngaityalya, CentrED and Adelaide Festival Centre Foundation.
