Welcome to Artopia
Artopia Gallery is committed to showcasing the work of Kimberley artists who are each unique and talented in their own right. The artists involved with the gallery use a variety of form across fine art, photography, sculpture and giftware.
These original and rich works are a feast for the eyes. Whether you are looking to take a piece of the Kimberley home with you or for a haven to relax and share in the creativity of Artopia's artists, the experience created in Artopia Gallery is not one to be missed.
-
Artopia Gallery was established in October 2011 by sisters Cally and Bec Bugg, alongside their picture framing business, Artopia Framing and Photography. Now in its 15th year of operation, Artopia has earned its place as one of the leading galleries in the northwest of Australia, as well as being the only picture framers in the East Kimberley.
-
Artopia’s principal aim is to create a warm and welcoming space that showcases creative work from a wide variety of Kimberley artists. We endeavour to form strong relationships with all of our artists, providing a platform for their talents to shine. We love working with these talented friends to propel their art careers, and it is deeply rewarding to see them receiving the recognition they deserve.
-
We have curated a selection of incredible and varied artists from all walks of life. From local Indigenous painters to international immigrants, our focus is on displaying the incredible diversity and beauty of our home, the Kimberley.
From the heart of the Kimberley, by the heart of the Kimberley.

This painting with 3 Wandjina Creation Spirit or more and handprints can be found scattered out on the many rock faces and stone shelters throughout the East and West Kimberley region. This part of the world is the home of 4 major tribes. The Kwini tribe, Wunambul, Ngaringmin and Worrora. Each tribe has their own Wandjina Creation Spirit. Over the years these four tribes, through trials and tribulations, have come to settle and forged a memorandum of understanding with each other. With collective ceremonial gatherings, they would trade, share songs and dance, and arrange inter-tribal marriages.
