Lot description

NORA WOMPI (1935-2017) (Language group: Kukatja) Kunawarratji 2008 synthetic polymer paint on linen inscribed verso with artist's name and Warlayirti Artists cat. no. 372/08 180 x 120cm PROVENANCE: The Artist, painted at Balgo, Western Australia Warlayirti Artists, Western Australia (accompanied by a copy of the certificate of authenticity) Suzanne O'Connell Gallery, Brisbane The Le Pley Collection, Western Australia Private collection, Melbourne OTHER NOTES: "This is a particularly dynamic work by Nora which reflects an intense memory of a particular landscape near her traditional country near Well 33 in the Great Sandy Desert. This is her fathers country in the middle stretches of the Canning Stock Route. The variation in shapes and colours shows country rich in bushfoods such as bush onion, pura (bush tomato) and kantijilyi (bush raisin)."
