TUPPY NGINTJA GOODWIN
“Tjintu Ngalya-pakani. Every day the sun rises over Antara, a place of great importance and Tjukurpa, near my home of Mimili. My paintings tell a part of Antara Tjukurpa and they hold much knowledge within them. In this exhibition my paintings and Judy’s paintings stand together, but they are about different places, far apart. Judy paints her father’s country out Kanpi way, all the way over there where the sun sets. Ngura kutjara (two places) connected by Tjukurpa pulkanya (one strong Tjukurpa).” Tuppy Ngintja Goodwin, 2019

Tuppy NGINTJA GOODWIN Birth Date Place of Birth Language
1952 Bumbali Creek / Palmer Creek Pitjantjatjara
Tuppy is a senior Pitjantjatjara artist committed to passing on her cultural knowledge to the next generation of Anangu. Tuppy was born in the bush near Bumbali Creek to her father Nguyarangu from Docker River and her mother Emily Nyanyanta from Wintutjuru, west of Fregon on the APY Lands. She moved to Mimili with her family at a young age. At the time Mimili was called Everard Park. It was a cattle station, which was returned to Aboriginal ownership through the 1981 Pitjantjatjara Land Rights Act. Tuppy was a pre-school teacher at the Mimili Anangu School for thirty years, sharing stories through inma (dance and song) and storytelling. Since the foundation of the art centre in 2009 she has been painting at Mimili Maku Arts, capturing the stories given to her through her heritage in a dynamic and intuitive way. As the chairperson of Mimili Maku Arts, Tuppy has represented her art centre on multiple occasions since 2009. Alongside her late husband Kunmanara (Mumu Mike) Williams, Tuppy has been a strong leader and mentor to young Anangu in Mimili. Her paintings have been exhibited nationally and internationally. She was first shortlisted for the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Awards in 2018.

There is a special rock hole at Antara where women perform inma – ‘inmaku pakani’ – and afterwards there is enough maku to feed everyone.

JUDY MARTIN
“Ngintja and me have been painting at the art centre for a long time. We used to paint alongside our husbands, ngaltutjara. When they passed away, we started working alongside each other, keeping each other strong. Tuppy looked after me, I look after her. That is what sisters do. Everyday. Tjintu Ngalya-pakani, Tjintu Matjarpanyi.� Judy Martin, 2019

Judy MARTIN Birth Date Place of Birth Language
1963 Ngatunitja, APY Lands Pitjantjatjara
Judy Martin is a senior Pitjantjatjara artist living and working in Mimili Community on the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands in northwest South Australia. Judy was born near Ngatunitja waterhole in the northern APY Lands. Her father was Pompey Everard and his country was Wakura, near Nyapari in the west. Her mother was Molly Pompey, whose country was Puntiri near Sandy Bore, 30kms south of Mimili. Judy spent her youth traveling between communities and getting to know country intimately. As a young woman, Judy became a Ngangkari (traditional healer), a practice she maintains until today. She continues to have strong connections to her family in Nyapari and Kanpi, her father’s country, whilst living in her mother’s country. Judy draws her inspiration from a wealth of cultural knowledge, connecting two geographically far removed locations in her paintings. Judy is known for her bold visual language, and the deep joy for storytelling she brings to her community.
