Alice Hinton-Bateup is an Australian artist and print-maker. In the 1980s she was active in Garage Graphics,[1] a print workshop in Mt. Druitt, Sydney, which included a number of Aboriginal artists. They produced posters that became important in the struggle for Aboriginal rights in Australia.[2]
Early life and education
Hinton-Bateup was born in 1950 in Western Sydney[1] and identifies as an Aboriginal woman of the Kamilaroi and Wonnarua peoples.[3] She was taken from her parents at 11 months of age (and is therefore one of The Stolen Generation) and institutionalised first at Bomaderry and then at Cootamundra in New South Wales. In 1965, at the age of 15, she was put into domestic service for white people.[4]
When she eventually had children herself, she worried that they would be taken from her, and never having experienced maternal love she kept them at arm's length. It was not until much later in life feeling that she had wasted so much time that she learned to love her children.[4]
She trained in silk and fabric screen printing at Garage Graphics and in 1983 began working for them.[1]
Hinton-Bateup participated in four print exhibitions exhibitions in the 1980s[1] and in 2020 was included in the exhibition Know My Name at the National Gallery of Australia, an exhibition focused on female Australian Artists.[1]
Works
In the 1980s, Hinton-Bateup produced posters with very specific political messages. Some remain in the library of art posters.
In 1986, she produced Dispossessed that included text and focuses on the forced relocation of Aboriginal people and their loss of connection to Country.[5]
That same year, she printed Peace with images of three people above whom was a text that concludes there could be no peace without recognition of Aboriginal connection to the land.[6]
In 1988, Hinton-Bateup participated in an Aboriginal parenting seminar sponsored by a regional public tenants council as a community art project. As a result, she produced a poster at Garage Graphics about Ruth Whitbourne, another Aboriginal woman.[4]
