Julie Nangala Robertson, Ngapa Jukurrpa, Acrylic On Canvas, 2015

ABOUT THE WORK NGAPA DREAMING
In her paintings, Julie Nangala represents "Pirlinyanu", her father's country of which she is the custodian, close to Mina Mina, a rocky land rich in deep water sources. Through her work on the Dream of Water, she develops her own pictorial language, continuing the research carried out by her mother, Dorothy Napangardi, on color contrasts. Her paintings are minimalist, innovative and very often painted using only two or three colors (mainly white, black and red) which recall the white traces left on the ochre soil by the salt and which are characteristic of this territory.

ABOUT JULIE NANGALA ROBINSON
Julie Nangala Robertson, also known as Robinson, was born in 1973 in Yuendumu (Northern Territory, Australia). She is one of the five daughters of the great artist Dorothy Napangardi. Julie Nangala Robertson began painting in the late nineties alongside her mother. This is why we can admire in these works a very elaborate and accomplished technique transmitted by her mother. With her strong family roots and undeniable artistic talent, she is called upon in the near future to become an emblematic figure of contemporary Aboriginal art. Her talent is internationally recognized and her paintings are present in many private and public collections including the Musée des Confluences in Lyon, France.
