Langaliki Lewis is part of the art centre Ernabella Arts.
Langaliki is the daughter of senior artist Atipalku Intjalki (painter) and Adrian Intjalki (timber artist) and mother to three daughters. Her sister is the highly- skilled potter Lynette Lewis.
Langaliki went to school in Ernabella and then Adelaide. On returning from Adelaide she began working at the Ernabella TAFE and later the community office and then store.
She is an up and coming artist who is showing great promise in her sensitive depictions of her country on canvas. Her ceramics were first exhibited at Sabbia Gallery in Sydney in 2014 and recent paintings depicting a powerful storm cloud story have been widely exhibited. Her work has been shown in galleries around Australia including Sydney, Darwin, Alice Springs, Broome, Mittagong, York (WA) and overseas including France, Belgium and the USA.
