ZAACHARIAHA FIELDING NGANGKALI (NIGHT SKY)

24 July - 16 August 2025

Ngangkali (Night Sky) 

Zaachariaha Fielding's ‘Ngangkali (Night Sky)’ continues his exploration of ancestral narratives and songlines. His paintings pay homage to his inherited Tjukurpa (ancestral knowledge and law) through a vivid palette and expressive use of Pitjantjatjara language.

Fielding is a multidisciplinary artist, originally from the Mimili Community in the Aṉangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands of South Australia, currently working out of the APY Collective Art Centre. Widely recognised as the frontman of the electronic musical duo ‘Electric Fields’, his visual arts practice has gained momentum in recent years, having exhibited at prominent Australian institutions such as the National Gallery of Victoria, Art Gallery of New South Wales, and Art Gallery of South Australia, in additional to international presentations. 

In 2023, he was the Winner of the prestigious Wynne Art Prize at the Art Gallery of New South Wales, and as the Winner of the People’s Choice Award for the Ramsay Art Prize that same year. He has also been a finalist in the Sir John Sulman Art Prize, Mosman Art Prize, and National Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Art Awards.  

He will be presenting a major commission at the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art (ACCA) in early 2027. His works are held in public and private collections nationally and internationally; notable collections include the Art Gallery of South Australia, National Gallery of Victoria, Artbank, Sony, Macquarie Group, and ARNDT collection.
