The Rope Story is an extraordinary initiative developed by
Anangu Pitjantjatjara elders as a means of re-focusing young
men taking risks with their lives and reinforcing their place in
the land and the universe. The making of the “rope” - a fortymetre
long sand sculpture - blends traditional culture with a
modern context as it uses art to intervene, divert and face
contemporary risks, challenges and opportunities.
