Mitjili Napurrula, My Dreaming, Acrylic on canvas, 1996

ABOUT THIS ARTWORKMitjili essentially paints the Dreaming of a tree, the Watiya Tjuta, a species used to make spears and boomerangs. This endemic species grows in Ulwalki, in the Gibson Desert near Kintore.This land is characterized by red sand dunes (sandhills), bushes and trees, including the famous desert oaks. Mitjilis works are distinguished by her use of space, focusing on the leaf patterns of these trees, and by the way she treats the background of her canvases.Unlike many desert artists who use a classical pointillist background forming colored zones, Mitjili paints with large dots and solids, giving her works a surprisingly contemporary feel.This seminal painting stands out in particular because it heralds the international style that would make Mitjili famous in the 2000s.A certificate of authenticity mentioning the history of the work is enclosed with this painting by Didier Zanette, an internationally recognized collector and dealer specializing in Oceanic art since the 1990s.Indeed, this painting was created by the artist at the renowned Ikuntji womens center, acquired by the Utrecht Museum in the Netherlands, and then by Didier Zanette himself.ABOUT MITJILI NAPURRURLA (1945-2019)Mitjili Napurrula was born in Papunya around 1945. Her family played an important role in Papunyas aboriginal community. Half-sister of the famous artist Turkey Tjupurrula Tolson, she is the daughter of Tjunkiya Napaltjarri, an artist also renowned for her participation in the Minyma Tjukurrpa Project in the mid-1990s, thanks to which she became one of Kintores most respected female painters.Married to the painter Long Tom Tjapanangka, who won the 16th Telstra Art Award in 1999, she moved with him to Haasts Bluff (Ikuntji), 230 km west of Alice Springs, in the 1980s. She began painting in the early 1990s. She depicts Tree Dreaming (Watiya Tjuta), a particular species of wood used by the men in her family to make weapons, associated with her fathers homeland (Uwalki).Mitjili is one of the artists who marked the early 2000s with the international dimension of her work. She has taken part in numerous exhibitions in Australia, Holland, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Singapore and the United States. In particular, she distinguished herself at the “Spirit Country: Contemporary Australian Aboriginal Art” exhibition held at the Fine Arts Museum in San Francisco in 1999, as well as at the prestigious Adelaide Biennale “Beyond the Pale” in 2000.Mitjili Napurrurla, who died in 2019, was one of the pioneering artists of contemporary Aboriginal painting, and her works are now among the most widely collected Aboriginal artworks.
