Sallyanne Roberts Australian, Pitjantjatjara, b. 1986
“I grew up in my grandmothers country close to Nyapari, my grandmothers name is Wingu Tingima; she was a Ngangkari (traditional healer) and a famous painter. When she was getting very old, she taught me her stories, and how to paint them in our special family’s way. She taught me how to paint the pictures of Kuru Ala country – it’s a special place just for women.”
