Ivaritji (Gentle Misty Rain) (26-2)
2025
Acrylic on canvas
195 × 136cm

”Ivaritji [Gentle Misty Rain] is an acknowledgement of the Elders and leaders who continue to support their communities: guiding, teaching, and creating space for others to grow. Each ripple is a heartbeat. Each heartbeat radiates our intention. In every moment, holding something of who we are and what we carry. Each beat pulsing outward, influencing the spaces we share. Like a gentle rain meeting water, our impact ripples outward, meeting others along the way and reminding us of the invisible dance between us.”

Tony Wilson is a South Australian artist with Kaurna, Ngarrindjeri, Narungga, and Italian ancestry. Guided by his Aboriginal heritage, Tony’s work integrates dot motifs, tracks, and cultural iconography to reflect upon deep connections to Country. Influenced by the natural world he draws on rhythms of the land, sky, and water to explore themes of identity and belonging. The fusion of these elements allows Tony to navigate the complexities of his dual heritage, creating a visual language that honours tradition. His work is an invitation to reflect, reconnect, and find meaning in the spaces between our histories.
