Eubena Nampitjin Kinyu 2005
Acrylic on linen 300 x 800mm SOLD
Eubena has painted some of her country south west of Balgo. This country is centred around Kunawarritji (Well 33) along the Canning Stock Route. The central circles represent warniri (rockholes). This is the country where Kinyu the spirit dog lives. Kinyu watches over this country and looks after Eubena when she hunts here. To say thank you to Kinyu Eubena would often leave gifts of goanna at the warniri. The uppermost circle depicts a sacred women's place and the surrounding features are tali (sandhills).
