The artists that Art Stret work with represent the strongest artistic talent drawn from across Papua New Guinea. They represent all generations, cultural backgrounds and a diverse technical history. Many of these artists are recognised internationally for their glorious work whilst there is little recognition inside their own country. Art Stret aims to promote the creators and their work to a broader audience both at home and internationally and hopes to aid in the recognition of the wealth of artistic tradition and talent here in Papua New Guinea.
