Hello my name is Nyalkba and I'm a Larrakia and Jawoyn Aboriginal Artist from a small outback town in the Northern Territory of Australia. Nyalkba is my Jawoyn name given to me by the Elders of my mother's tribe and custodians of our homeland located in Southern Arnhem land. I was born in Darwin (Garamilla) on the land of my father's tribe the Larrakia Nation. As a child my mother took me to be raised on her Jawoyn homeland. I grew up amongst our tribe which consists of 17 Clans. I was taught my traditional culture of language, dreaming stories, art, dance, singing, caring for animals and sacred country. I'm currently based in the city of Adelaide (Tarntanya) in South Australia.
