Kimberley Visions: Rock Art Style Provinces of North Australia

This project contains rock art and excavation data from the NE Kimberley, providing a critical link in the Kimberley-Arnhem Land nexus. Working with Balanggarra Aboriginal Corporation, Rangers, and partners over 1,350 sites have been located and recorded. More than 80,000 high resolution photographs and several thousand ‘meta-data’ records are being researched with an access-controlled database. These sites include rock art, historic campsites, ochre sources, stone arrangements, quarries and living sites. The sites are from the Drysdale, King George and Forrest River catchments with additional research areas along the coast and in the Pentecost Ranges.

The Kimberley Visions Project (LP150100490) is an Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage Project between Balanggarra Aboriginal Corporation, Monash University, the University of Melbourne, the Kimberley Foundation Australia, Western Australia’s Department of Parks and Wildlife, Dunkeld Pastoral and the Centre for Rock Art Research and Management (CRAR+M) at the University of Western Australia (UWA).
