The seventy-one finalists of the 2025 Telstra NATSIAA National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island Art Awards respond to current affairs, the continuation of cultures, and unerring connections to Country.
The works span bark, multimedia, painting, sculpture and works on paper, and are available to all via the virtual gallery, which provides an accessible and rich platform for engaging with contemporary Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art. Detailed descriptions and the artist’s reflections accompany each work, allowing viewers to connect with themes of Country, culture, identity, kinship and political expression.
