"Aboriginal Painting, Tiwi Island, Cornelia Tipuamanturriri, "
Cornelia Tipuamanturriri was born in Pirlangimpi (Garden Point), Melville Island, around 1930. Her father's ancestral country is Imalu Point, Melville Island and her mother's ancestral country is Munupi, Melville Island. His skin group is Warntarringa (Sun) and his dream Jarrikalani (Turtle). Tipuamantumirri lives and works in Pirlangimpi where she is an initiated and respected Tiwi elder. Tipuamanturriri uses the kayimwagakimi, a traditional carved wooden paint comb with a single row of teeth. Using an earthy palette of pinks, yellows, blacks and browns, his work depicts significant aspects of Tiwi life and culture with repeated dotted lines referencing yirrinkiripwoja (body painting) and the tidal movements of the surrounding seas. Tipuamantumirri, who started painting in 2010, is also an experienced weaver.
