Kathleen
Petyarre
Born at
Antnagkere on Utopia, in the 1980's Kathleen Petyarre worked in
batik, then took up painting on canvas as part of CAAMA's Summer
Project in 1988-89. Her art directly refers to her country
and her Dreamings, including Women Hunting, Emu, Dingo Dreaming and
her signature painting of the Mountain Devil Lizard Dreaming.
Her art is minimalist, done in a layering technique with very
intricate dotting.
