Biographics


Birthdate: 1975 Kununurra
Language Group: Gija
 
Marlene Juli began her career in 1999, after studying from her mother Mabel Juli, a well-known artist. The themes of her works are the history and landscape of Darrajayn (Springvale Farm area), which lies south-west of her home in Warmun. Darrajayn is the country of her mother´s father. Although Marlene Juli never lived in Darrajayn, she has detailed knowledge of the Ngarrangkarni (lore) of that country, passed on to her by Mabel Juli during many travels there together. Marlene Julis Partner, Mark Nodea, is also an artist.

Kilfoyle River, Texas Downs, 2002
Natural pigments on canvas, 45 x 120 cm


Marlene has painted an aerial view of the country near Kilfoyle Yard in Texas Downs Country. Marlene, her husband and son Leonardo when they are out bush go camping at Kilfoyle, it was after such a bush trip that Marlene decided to paint the country in this area. Marlene´s husband´s family is from Texas Downs Station Country. They lived and worked on the station until the end of the 1960s. The blue band running through the painting is the Ord River. Kilfoyle Yard was an old cattle yard used to hold stock when they were being driven from stations to the Port of Wyndham. The black area is the stony crossing and the red areas are the river banks. There is also deep yellow sand here, which makes a good place to camp. It is dry and clean.
