Winpurpurla
christine yukenbarri nakamarra(1977 –)
Discover Christine Yukenbarri Nakamarra's captivating Western Desert art! Kukatja artist known for Kinti-Kinti dot painting, reflecting her family’s rich Balgo heritage & powerful storytelling.
Christine has painted some of her mother’s country south of Balgo, in the Great Sandy Desert. This country is named Winpurpurla after the tjurnnu (soak water) depicted as the central circle in the painting. Winpurpurla is an inta, or ‘living water’ place so it always has good water. Women often travel to Winpurpurla to collect a variety of seeds, including lukarrari, which is ground to make damper, and kumpupatja (bush tomato). The lines in the painting represent the tali (sandhills) that dominate this country.—Warlayirti Artists © Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory
