Pirlinyanu 2002 by Julie Nangala Robertson 31x41cm Cat 11006JR

Julie depicts her Ngapa Jukurrp a (Water Dreaming), which is associated with her father’s traditional country of Pirlinyanu, a rocky outcrop in the Tanami Desert, west of Yuendumu and towards the WA border.

This small delicate work is an aerial perspective.

The eldest of the five daughters of Dorothy Napangardi Robinson has recently changed the spelling of her surname from Robinson to Robertson, as she feels that her father, Windy, had misspelt their surname, as Julie's other relatives in Yuendumu are all Robertson.
