Kumbuljiri by Rosie Nanyuma (1995)

"Nanyuma lived in the mission at Balgo [Western Australia] & was a caretaker of women's law and ceremony when she started painting in 1989. In addition to painting her Country (homeland), she also rendered important Dreaming (creation) stories about Tingarri men, women, & the Wati-kutjarra (lizard men). The subject of this painting is unknown."

From "We Were Lost in Our Country" at the Nevada Museum of Art until March 23, 2025.
