Nora Wompi

$10,500.00

Description: Noras work depicts her traditional country near Kunawarritju Community (well 33), far to the southwest of Balgo along the middle stretches of the Canning Stock Route. The lines in the painting represent the tali (sandhills) that dominate this country. This is good country for collecting bush foods including pura (bush tomato) and kantjilyi (bush raisin). The circular shapes represent rockholes, as sources of water dotted throughout the desert.
