Kambarni
ARTIST
Kamsani Bin Salleh (Kambarni) is descended from the Ballardong Noongar people and Nimunburr and Yawuru people of the Kimberley region in Western Australia.
Kambarni is an Australian Indigenous artist whose multifaceted work as an illustrator, muralist, and political cartoonist presents a powerful vision for a new Australian identity—one that deeply honors its Indigenous roots. Through his art, which seamlessly blends traditional Indigenous symbolism with the vibrant beauty of Australian flora and fauna, Kam invites all Australians to embrace a shared history and a more profound connection to the land. His work not only captures the aesthetic richness of the natural world but also serves as a call for inclusivity and recognition of the diverse cultural narratives that shape the nation. By engaging with his art, Australians are encouraged to adopt an identity that is multifaceted, inclusive, and deeply connected to the stories and landscapes that define the country.
