Founded in 2000, Bindi Mwerre Anthurre Artists was the first Australian studio to merge supported art spaces with the First Nations Art Centre model. Emerging from Bindi Enterprises—established in 1978 to support people with disability—the studio took shape in the 1990s when the late Billy Benn Perrurle began painting on scrap timber and metal in the Bindi workshop. His vision and practice laid the foundation for a thriving collective that now includes artists from across the Central Desert, with most living and working in Mparntwe (Alice Springs). Today, their work is nationally recognised and collected by galleries and private collectors alike.
