FIONA YOUNG

Fiona Young was born near Pungkupirri waterhole near Tjukurla in Western Australia. She lived in Docker River and Warakurna before moving to Tjukurla with her husband Adrian Young (deceased), their children and extended family.

Fiona is a Ngaanyatjarra woman, with a great wealth of cultural knowledge and love for her country. Her paintings depict the dreamings of her country through beautifully intricate explorations of line and space.

MY COUNTRY

In this painting Fiona has depicted the area of her birthplace. There are various campsites and ceremonial sites with people sometimes being represented by the U shapes.

It is at these campsites that dreamtime stories are told and ceremonies conducted. The different colours represent the land and the various rockholes and sandhills.
