Printed on tencel linen, this design by Eunice Napanangka Jack depicts her father's Country at Kuruyultu - a rockhole in Western Australia where she was born.
Eunice Napanangka Jack was born in 1940 at Lupul in the Sir Frederick Ranges. Her mother carried her piggyback all the way from Western Australia to Haasts Bluff as a little girl. Eunice began painting with the opening of the Ikuntji Women's Centre in August 1992 and is now represented in leading galleries worldwide.
"My grandfather speared a wallaby at Kuruyultu. That next morning I was born, near the rockhole there. We had to leave that place - my father, my mother, my extended family - and we all went to Haasts Bluff. I have been back for visits but never lived there again in my country. I think about it every day."
