C.Keller Wambaya people

C.Keller is a proud Wambaya man inspired by his Grandfather’s paintings. C.Keller has spent his life moving around Queensland but never stayed one placed for long. Painting has been a great way for C.Keller to heal, connection to country and express his creativity through imagery, sharing dreamtime stories and personal journey. C.Keller uses earthy colours in his paintings to convey deeper meaning. The layering of images represents the layers of my culture and the interconnection of everything in my world. “I hope to spark conversations and educate others about the rich First Nations people, and hope my art is keeping my culture alive and passing on knowledge to other generations”.


“My art reminds me of the power of creative expression and cultural exchange, which shines a light on the significance of storytelling in indigenous cultures”.
