Acknowledgement of country

Batchelor Institute would like to acknowledge and pay respect to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander sovereign people of the lands on which our campuses are located. As we share our knowledge, teaching and learning and engage in research practices within this Institution and/or conduct business with a variety of external agencies and organisations, we must always pay respect to the sovereign status of our hosts. May their Ancestors always be remembered and honoured, their Elders listened to and respected, all members treated with dignity and fairness — in the present and well into the future.

We also acknowledge and pay respect to the knowledge embedded forever with our hosts, custodianship of country and the binding relationship they have with the land. Batchelor Institute extends this acknowledgment and expression of respect to all sovereign custodians — past, present and emerging. By expressing Acknowledgement of Country we encourage all to extend and practice respect to all First Nations people wherever their lands are located.

Over the past 6 months, Batchelor Institute visual arts students from Warlukurlangu have been working hard on sculpture designs.

The students are studying Certificate I in Visual Arts and their sculptures depict the dogs of Yuendumu. After they had finished, the engineering department at the Alice Springs Correctional Centre took the designs and made them into metal cut outs.

The sculptures were then taken back to community and painted by the top artists of Yuendumu, who are also completing certificates in visual arts with Batchelor Institute.

The project resulted in 200 dog sculptures, which were unveiled at the 2016 Desert Mob Exhibition at the Araluen Art Presinct on Friday September 9th.

The Desert Mob Exhibition is one of Australia’s foremost Indigenous art and cultural events, which is offered by Araluen Arts Centre in partnership with Desart.

The textile and fashion design work of Batchelor Institute students was also featured at a fashion parade at the Desert Mob Symposium.

This collaboration highlights Batchelor Institute’s commitment to industry engagement and the type of real-world experience and exposure that is provided to our students.
