Ruby Williamson Ultukunpa - Grevillea Flower 2004
Acrylic on linen 510 x 355mm $430
Ruby is telling the story of the Ultujunpa or Honey Grevillea flower which is a favourite bush tucker of the Anangu
Pitjantjatjara. Ultukunpa, also known by the name of Kaliny-kalinypa, comes into flower around November-
December in the Central Desert. The flowers can be picked and placed in a bilycan of water to create 'honeywater'
or they can be sucked on for their sweet honey dew.
