Name: Tiarne Hall
Language: Wiradjuri
Biography:
Born and raised on Wiradjuri Country, Wagga Wagga. Tiarne is currently living and working on Yorta Yorta Country, Shepparton & Cobram. She is just one of many in her family who paint, including her two children.
Tiarne joined Kaiela Arts in 2014, taken under the wing of Gamilaraay artist Uncle Eric Brown.
A self-taught, contemporary artist; Tiarne works across a range of mediums from painting, watercolour, drawing & printmaking. She has also painted several murals, many of which are at Cactus Country Strathmerton & Cobram, including a 12.5 metre, colourful “brain scan” that the ABC did a mini doc on for January 26th, 2021.
She has always used art to express her strong connection to country and family. Her work often references feminist & political undertones, traditional practices and topographical themed scenes, which also pay homage to the linear style of artwork created by her ancestors.
Her unique designs were chosen for Design Roots 2 – “Lake” in 2018 and she collaborated with Spacecraft Studios to screen print her designs onto fabric.
Subsequently her designs were also chosen for Design Roots 3 – “Identity” in 2019, which featured in the Darwin Aboriginal Art Fair & Country to Couture Fashion Show. These same designs were exhibited in the NGV.
Tiarne also worked closely with other Kaiela artists to create “Yalka Lotjpa Nha”, a children’s Yorta Yorta language book.
Tiarne’s artwork has been exhibited locally and often in Naarm/Melbourne.
