NGIPI WARD (c.1949-2014) (Ngaanyatjarra Language Group) Kurratjiti synthetic polymer paint on linen inscribed verso with artist's name and Kayili Artists cat. no. 06-137 151 x 101.5cm PROVENANCE: Kayili Artists, Gibson Desert, Western Australia (accompanied by a certificate of authenticity) Private collection, Adelaide OTHER NOTES: "Kurratjiti is west of Patjarr, at this site there are four rockholes. This is in Ngipi's father's country, where she grew up. The ladies collect the seeds of an Acacia tree, which the women beat from the branches, then winnow to separate the seed from the husk. Once the seed is cleaned the women grind it up mixing it with water to make a paste called lungkunpa which is eaten raw. Wandantjarri rockhole is also shown and this was created when Warlawurru, the wedge tailed eagle Ancestor, flew into the ground. He is still there." As stated on the Kayili Artists certificate of authenticity.
