Wintjiri Wiru
|
|
As custodians of the land, Anangu hold the Mala story from Kaltukatjara to Uluru. To share their story from Kaltukatjara to Uluru, RAMUS designed and produced an artistic platform using drones, light and sound to create an immersive storytelling experience.
Wintjiri Wiru, which in the local Pitjantjatjara language means ‘beautiful view out to the horizon’ is a breathtaking sound and light show bringing to life the ancient Mala story of the Anangu people, a story passed on for thousands of generations. Guests can immerse themselves in Anangu culture in the following ways: |

Sunrise Journeys
|
|
Immerse yourself in a mindful celebration of culture and nature at dawn.
Connect with Country during this immersive sunrise experience. Sunrise Journeys shines a light on three prolific female Anangu artists who have come together to create a bespoke artwork that depicts their deep connection to culture and Country. Before the glowing silhouettes of Uluru and Kata Tjuta are revealed, the artwork is brought to life, utilising the vast desert landscape as a natural canvas.
As the red earth warms under the rising sun, take a seat on the sustainably constructed floating platform overlooking Uluru and Kata Tjuta, and watch the artwork as it is recreated on the vast, dark desert landscape below using cutting edge laser and light projection technology. Indigenous iconography - similar to those commonly seen in dot paintings - begin to gently ebb and flow across the land.
Following the display, enjoy a hearty breakfast of native flavours paired with an Australian chai tea.
