Kathleen Buzzacott was born 1970 in Alice Springs in Central Australia and is of Pitjantjatjara and Western Arrernte descent, alongside her Scottish and English heritage. She moved to Queensland for some time with her brother and sister to live with her father. However at aged 10, she returned to live with her mother at Hermannsburg in Central Australia. These formative years hunting and digging for honey ants are often reflected in her art.

Kathleen's art reflects her early childhood experiences and her life in general, telling Aboriginal stories on canvas and featuring native bush creatures. Her work expresses joy, connection, and healing through memories of time spent on country. Kathleen’s husband Keith and their two sons still hunt emu and kangaroo, and they often go camping around her husband's traditional home of the Arrernte People, west of Alice Springs. As a self-managed artist and member of the Indigenous Art Code, Kathleen plays a key role in promoting ethical Indigenous art practices while sharing her culture with both national and international audiences.
