Chantelle Ah Chee is a proud Nyikina woman on her mother’s side. The traditional lands of the Nyikina people are located in the West Kimberley region, Western Australia. Nyikina people describe themselves as Yimarrdoowarra, which means belonging to the Mardoowarra, the Fitzroy River.

Chantelle has found joy from being able to engage with community through art. Being an artist allows Chantelle to express herself and gives her a sense of belonging and connection to culture, spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically. Her aim is to share Aboriginal culture through art, with others and to be a role model for her children and the next generation.
