It is old, spacious country of red sandhills, spinifex plains and rockholes that hold water long after the rain has gone, and she spent her early life moving through it on foot, living the way Pintupi families had lived there for thousands of years. Her first journey out of the desert came in 1962, travelling with a Northern Territory Welfare Branch patrol so her young son could be treated at Papunya. She returned to Kiwirrkurra that same year, and came back again the following year with her family group during the drought migration that brought many Pintupi people east. The family later settled at Walungurru, known as Kintore.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eShe was married to Yala Yala Gibbs Tjungurrayi, a founding painter of Papunya Tula and one of the great exponents of the men's Tingari style. Through the 1980s at Kintore, Ningura worked on his canvases, laying in the dense background dotting that carried his designs. In 1995 she joined the Kintore and Haasts Bluff women's painting project, then in its second year, and it was there that her own hand emerged. She formally joined Papunya Tula Artists in 1996 as part of the group of senior Kintore and Kiwirrkurra women whose arrival reshaped the company and, with it, the direction of Western Desert painting. Her first solo exhibition came in 2000 at William Mora Galleries in Melbourne, the same year her work appeared in Papunya Tula: Genesis and Genius at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. After her husband's death in 1998 her output grew, and so did her standing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eHer work is unmistakable. She built her canvases from heavy layers of acrylic, laid on with real physical weight, and organised them around strong sweeping linear designs. Long curved bands, concentric roundels and dense rows of dotting move across the surface with a rhythm that feels almost like breathing. Her palette shifts from soft pinks and corals to hot yellows, deep reds, ochres and stark black and white, and she used colour boldly, letting the ground push up through the layers above it so the surface reads with real depth. That layering has been compared to the way women apply paint to skin in ceremony. Where her husband painted men's Tingari, Ningura painted the lives, journeys and ceremonial law of women, and she is remembered as much for her authority as a keeper of that knowledge as for the paintings themselves. She also gave works to help establish and support the Western Desert dialysis service, and one of her designs travelled across remote communities on the side of its truck.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eDREAMINGS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eWomen's Ceremony \u003c\/span\u003e- This is Awelye, the ceremonial life of Pintupi women.

The long curved bands and arcs that dominate her canvases carry these forms.

It is old, spacious country of red sandhills, spinifex plains and rockholes that hold water long after the rain has gone, and she spent her early life moving through it on foot, living the way Pintupi families had lived there for thousands of years. Her first journey out of the desert came in 1962, travelling with a Northern Territory Welfare Branch patrol so her young son could be treated at Papunya. She returned to Kiwirrkurra that same year, and came back again the following year with her family group during the drought migration that brought many Pintupi people east. The family later settled at Walungurru, known as Kintore.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eShe was married to Yala Yala Gibbs Tjungurrayi, a founding painter of Papunya Tula and one of the great exponents of the men's Tingari style. Through the 1980s at Kintore, Ningura worked on his canvases, laying in the dense background dotting that carried his designs. In 1995 she joined the Kintore and Haasts Bluff women's painting project, then in its second year, and it was there that her own hand emerged. She formally joined Papunya Tula Artists in 1996 as part of the group of senior Kintore and Kiwirrkurra women whose arrival reshaped the company and, with it, the direction of Western Desert painting. Her first solo exhibition came in 2000 at William Mora Galleries in Melbourne, the same year her work appeared in Papunya Tula: Genesis and Genius at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. After her husband's death in 1998 her output grew, and so did her standing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eHer work is unmistakable. She built her canvases from heavy layers of acrylic, laid on with real physical weight, and organised them around strong sweeping linear designs. Long curved bands, concentric roundels and dense rows of dotting move across the surface with a rhythm that feels almost like breathing. Her palette shifts from soft pinks and corals to hot yellows, deep reds, ochres and stark black and white, and she used colour boldly, letting the ground push up through the layers above it so the surface reads with real depth. That layering has been compared to the way women apply paint to skin in ceremony. Where her husband painted men's Tingari, Ningura painted the lives, journeys and ceremonial law of women, and she is remembered as much for her authority as a keeper of that knowledge as for the paintings themselves. She also gave works to help establish and support the Western Desert dialysis service, and one of her designs travelled across remote communities on the side of its truck.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eDREAMINGS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eWomen's Ceremony \u003c\/span\u003e- This is Awelye, the ceremonial life of Pintupi women.

Somewhere south east of Docker River her father stopped an army truck travelling through. This was the era when government policy was to bring desert families in off their homelands, and the truck took them on to the settlement at Papunya.

Like many desert artists, Barbara paints it from above, the way it is held in memory and in song rather than the way it is seen standing in it. The tali roll across the canvas in bands, the puli sit as solid shapes among them, and the rockholes and bush foods are marked where they truly are.

Dinni's older brother, Anatjari Tjampitjinpa, was one of the original artists painting in Papunya, and Dinni himself learned his craft by watching the old men paint through the 1970s. In 1981, the legendary Uta Uta Tjangala — considered one of the founding masters of the Western Desert art movement — personally invited Dinni to assist in painting a large canvas depicting events at the sacred site of Yumari, a remarkable honour. In the early 1980s, Bambatu also began painting at Papunya Tula.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; text-align: center;\" align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eBambatu was Dinni's apprentice for many years, absorbing his skills, techniques and deep knowledge of Country. Sadly, Dinni passed away in Alice Springs in 2000. The knowledge he shared, and everything she observed watching the old men of Papunya paint, became the foundation of her own powerful voice as an artist.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; text-align: center;\" align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eAt the heart of Bambatu's work is the Kungka Tjukurrpa; Women's Ceremony Dreaming. Her paintings tell the stories of her female ancestors as they travelled ceremonially across Country, moving between the waterholes of Wirrulunga in Central Australia through to the Kintore, Mount Leibig and Papunya regions. At each sacred site along the way, the women would stop, dance and sing — and it is these journeys, these places and these ceremonies that Bambatu has dedicated her artistic life to recording.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; text-align: center;\" align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eEach element in her paintings carries meaning. The concentric circles represent the waterholes and rockhole sites of her Country, particularly the rockhole sites west of Kiwirrkura that appear throughout her work. The parallel dotted lines trace the paths the ceremonial women travelled. The sand hills (Tali) of her homeland, the striking geometric dotted lines that create an almost maze-like effect across her canvases are another constant presence, as are the Water Dreaming stories that connect the women's journeys to the life-giving water sources of the Western Desert. Viewed up close, her dotted lines lead the eye along routes and watering holes; from a distance the work resolves into an elegant, woven whole. Together these elements form what Bambatu calls her \"My Country\" — a living map of place, ceremony and ancestry.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; text-align: center;\" align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eThe dotting techniques reflect body paint designs used in ceremony, and many other traditional symbols of the Central Desert can be found woven throughout her work.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; text-align: center;\" align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eBambatu's daughter Christine Nangala is now her apprentice, ensuring these Dreamtime stories and techniques continue to be passed down through the family — just as they have been for generations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; text-align: center;\" align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eHer work has been exhibited and collected internationally, with galleries including Kate Owen Gallery (Sydney), Mimi Art Gallery, The Artery (Sydney), Amy Kaslow Gallery, and Aboriginal Art Galleries of Australia among those that have represented her work.

Like many desert artists Lily paints it from above, the whole sweep of country laid open at once, so you are looking down on ridge after ridge running away to the horizon.

It is old country, a pale sweep of salt and spinifex ringed by low tali sandhills that shift colour as the sun moves across them, and it holds the rockholes and ceremonial sites that Makinti carried with her for the rest of her life. She grew up living the traditional Pintupi way, and her first sight of white people came when she watched men travelling by camel near Lupul. In the early 1940s she walked in to Haasts Bluff with her family, long before Papunya was built. She later lived at Papunya, and settled at Kintore when that community was established.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eHer painting life began late and moved quickly. She was one of the senior women who took part in the collaborative Haasts Bluff and Kintore women's painting project, a body of major canvases completed in 1994 and shown at the Tandanya National Aboriginal Cultural Institute in Adelaide. That project marked the point at which Pintupi women stepped forward as independent artists in the Western Desert movement, rather than working as helpers on paintings belonging to their husbands and brothers. In 1996 Makinti began painting for Papunya Tula Artists, alongside her cousin and painting companion Tatali Nangala, and she went on to become the most senior woman painting with the company as well as a shareholder and director of it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eWhat set her apart was her hand. Where much Western Desert painting is built up through the patient placing of dots with a fine stick, Makinti worked with a loaded brush and a gestural sweep that came straight out of the way ochre is drawn across the body for women's ceremony. Her canvases are layered, thick with paint, alive with movement. Bands of pale line arc and twist across grounds of orange and ochre, lit up with bursts of pink, mauve and yellow. The effect is less a map of country than the feel of country, the rhythm of feet and song and skirts turning in the dust.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eRecognition came steadily. Australian Art Collector magazine named her one of Australia's 50 Most Collectable Artists three years running, in 2003, 2004 and 2005, and she was a repeated finalist in the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Award through that decade before taking out the top prize in 2008. By then her work was being acquired by every major public collection in the country, and Utopia Art Sydney's director had described her as the Central Desert's finest painter since Emily Kngwarreye, with no living match for her painterly freedom.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eTowards the end of her painting career Makinti's eyesight was failing, but it did not dampen her passion for painting.

It is old country, a pale sweep of salt and spinifex ringed by low tali sandhills that shift colour as the sun moves across them, and it holds the rockholes and ceremonial sites that Makinti carried with her for the rest of her life. She grew up living the traditional Pintupi way, and her first sight of white people came when she watched men travelling by camel near Lupul. In the early 1940s she walked in to Haasts Bluff with her family, long before Papunya was built. She later lived at Papunya, and settled at Kintore when that community was established.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eHer painting life began late and moved quickly. She was one of the senior women who took part in the collaborative Haasts Bluff and Kintore women's painting project, a body of major canvases completed in 1994 and shown at the Tandanya National Aboriginal Cultural Institute in Adelaide. That project marked the point at which Pintupi women stepped forward as independent artists in the Western Desert movement, rather than working as helpers on paintings belonging to their husbands and brothers. In 1996 Makinti began painting for Papunya Tula Artists, alongside her cousin and painting companion Tatali Nangala, and she went on to become the most senior woman painting with the company as well as a shareholder and director of it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eWhat set her apart was her hand. Where much Western Desert painting is built up through the patient placing of dots with a fine stick, Makinti worked with a loaded brush and a gestural sweep that came straight out of the way ochre is drawn across the body for women's ceremony. Her canvases are layered, thick with paint, alive with movement. Bands of pale line arc and twist across grounds of orange and ochre, lit up with bursts of pink, mauve and yellow. The effect is less a map of country than the feel of country, the rhythm of feet and song and skirts turning in the dust.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eRecognition came steadily. Australian Art Collector magazine named her one of Australia's 50 Most Collectable Artists three years running, in 2003, 2004 and 2005, and she was a repeated finalist in the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Award through that decade before taking out the top prize in 2008. By then her work was being acquired by every major public collection in the country, and Utopia Art Sydney's director had described her as the Central Desert's finest painter since Emily Kngwarreye, with no living match for her painterly freedom.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-hansi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-AU;\"\u003eTowards the end of her painting career Makinti's eyesight was failing, but it did not dampen her passion for painting.

It is old, spacious country of red sandhills, spinifex plains and rockholes that hold water long after the rain has gone, and she spent her early life moving through it on foot, living the way Pintupi families had lived there for thousands of years. Her first journey out of the desert came in 1962, travelling with a Northern Territory Welfare Branch patrol so her young son could be treated at Papunya. She returned to Kiwirrkurra that same year, and came back again the following year with her family group during the drought migration that brought many Pintupi people east. The family later settled at Walungurru, known as Kintore.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eShe was married to Yala Yala Gibbs Tjungurrayi, a founding painter of Papunya Tula and one of the great exponents of the men's Tingari style. Through the 1980s at Kintore, Ningura worked on his canvases, laying in the dense background dotting that carried his designs. In 1995 she joined the Kintore and Haasts Bluff women's painting project, then in its second year, and it was there that her own hand emerged. She formally joined Papunya Tula Artists in 1996 as part of the group of senior Kintore and Kiwirrkurra women whose arrival reshaped the company and, with it, the direction of Western Desert painting. Her first solo exhibition came in 2000 at William Mora Galleries in Melbourne, the same year her work appeared in Papunya Tula: Genesis and Genius at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. After her husband's death in 1998 her output grew, and so did her standing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eHer work is unmistakable. She built her canvases from heavy layers of acrylic, laid on with real physical weight, and organised them around strong sweeping linear designs. Long curved bands, concentric roundels and dense rows of dotting move across the surface with a rhythm that feels almost like breathing. Her palette shifts from soft pinks and corals to hot yellows, deep reds, ochres and stark black and white, and she used colour boldly, letting the ground push up through the layers above it so the surface reads with real depth. That layering has been compared to the way women apply paint to skin in ceremony. Where her husband painted men's Tingari, Ningura painted the lives, journeys and ceremonial law of women, and she is remembered as much for her authority as a keeper of that knowledge as for the paintings themselves. She also gave works to help establish and support the Western Desert dialysis service, and one of her designs travelled across remote communities on the side of its truck.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eDREAMINGS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eWomen's Ceremony \u003c\/span\u003e- This is Awelye, the ceremonial life of Pintupi women.
