Kado Muir is an Australian Aboriginal artist, anthropologist,[1] archaeologist, and Indigenous rights activist[2] in Western Australia.
Muir spent 16 months in the area around the Carnarvon Ranges (also known as Katjarra) in 1962, and gave the first written account of the rock art at Serpent's Glen, now known as Karnatukul.
Reti (English name Empress Springs) is a significant cultural site in Great Victoria Desert, and is situated on land subject to a native title claim.
[14] In 2022 he has led workshops to make rugs made of recycled fabric for a cross-cultural art project called Reclaim the Void, created by Ngalia elders and others under the direction of Muir and Vivienne Robertson.
The rugs will be joined, creating a huge textile artwork depicting the story of the Tjukurrpa of the country where gold mines have been dug, and intended to comment on both the desecration of the land and the over-consumption of society.
