Biographics


Birthdate: ca. 1935 Yumarra

Nyurapayia Nampitjinpa first began her artistic career in the mid-90īs. She lives in Kintore and has developed a very free and original style in contrast to artists in Kintore who prefer the very precise dot-painting method.

This painting shows a group of women camped at the rockhole site of Yumarra, near Tjukula in Western Australia. The roundels show the camp sites of the women who had travelled from Punkilpirri, a large permanent water site, north-west of Docker River in the Walter James Range. They later continued their travels to the north through Tjukula and Tjalili. While at Yumarra the women performed the ceremonies associated with the area. They also gathered the edible berries and seeds growing in the vicinity. (Copyright of image remains by Aboriginal Artists Agency Ltd, PO Box 282, Cammeray, NSW 2062, Australia)
