CARMEL YUKENBARRI NAKAMARRA (born circa 1975)
Acrylic on canvas
120 x 80 cm


Carmel has painted some of her mother ’s country located south of Balgo, in the
Great Sandy Desert. This country here is named Winpurpurla after tjurrnu
(soakwater) depicted as the central circle. Winpurpurla is an inta, or ‘living water ’
place so it always has good water. Women travel to Winpurpurla to collect a variety
of seeds including lukarrari which is ground to make damper as well as kumpupatja
(bush tomato) and karnti (bush potato).
