Elizabeth Ngwarraye Bonney – My Grandmothers Country

I still hunt my Grand Mothers country for goanna, bush medicine and yams.

I hunt all year round, hunting and walking through the country makes me happy.  When I look at the distant hills I can feel my grandmother.  Bush flowers are everywhere.

Painting and printing my grandmother’s country reminds about those times.

Susan Ngwarraye Philomac – Spring Creek

Donkeys and horses would come and drink from the water at Spring Creek on my father’s country.  We would put a bucket in the sand we would filter the water so we could drink it.  When I was young girl we would go to Canteen Creek following the track along the hills, we would hunt turkey, emus and kangaroo and we would cut the bark and collect the sap from the sugar bag trees. `

Kathleen Nanima Rambler – Awerle Anatye (yam plant)

When I go visit my family we drive along Bluebush Road, the road is south of Ali Curung towards the Stuart Highway.  The road is sandy.

Bluebush Road has a dam, after Cyclone Tracey hit it was so large that it looked like the sea.  This is where I see the big cream coloured bush tomatos, pink desert roses and goannas running across the road.  All along the road is a sea of desert roses.  The secret yams grow under the ground, you follow the cracks in the dirt and this is where you find the ripe yams.  The secrets of the earth we call them.

The community of Ampilatwatja made a conscious decision not to paint ‘altyerr’ dreaming stories. The artists paint their country where those stories sit.

Sevania Kemarre Bonney – Wild Orange

My great Grandmothers Country is where we go hunting. We hunt goanna and bush turkey. We swim in the river. We look for bush banana, bush potato and wild oranges. I am inspired by the beautiful wild flowers that grow there. Being on my Great grandmothers country makes me happy and content.
