Immerse Yourself in a Mindful Celebration of Culture and Nature at Dawn
As the slow rising sun marks the day, a stunning piece of artwork, created by three local Anangu women, comes to life through projection, music and the natural environment of the desert floor. The iconic Uluru is our backdrop. Feel the shared connection to the land. Be reminded of the experiences we understand as humans. By coming together, past, present and future - we are one.
Sunrise Journeys is an intimate and sensory travel experience designed to last well beyond guests' stays...
This experience is the result of a collaboration between three renowned Anangu artists - Selina Kulitja (Maruku Arts), Denise Brady (Kaltukatjara Arts), and Valerie Brumby (Walkatjara Art) - along with Anangu musician and composer Jeremy Whiskey, and expert visual experience creator Mandylights.
