RISE Community Art is proud to partner with Robert Tilmouth who is a skilled artist in Punu (Wood Carving)

Robert is a middle aged gentleman born in Alice springs and grew up in Kaltukatjara (Docker River). Robert speaks many Aboriginal languages but his main language is pitjantjatjara. Robert is also a successful tracker, and has been used by local rescue teams on several occasions.

He was taught his Punu (wood) carving skills by the local elders and has many  stories behind the skills of carving.
