Curator’s notes
The sense of pride in country and the importance of communicating the primacy of the land as central to existence come through strongly in the philosophy behind 'Desert Tracks’ as both a business and cultural practice. The need to peacefully reach out to people of different cultures and welcome them to the Pitjantjatjara homelands so that caring for country can continue is the motivating force of Desert Tracks.
