JANET GOLDER - YAM FLOWER

Janet Comes from Boundary Bore in the Utopia region. She comes from a long line of artists with her grandmother the world renowned indigenous artist Emily Kame Kngwarreye. Janet grew up in Alice Springs but moved to Utopia when she was a teenager. Growing up in this area she used to watch her grandparents paint and developed her style from there focusing on bush leaves, yam dreaming and women's body paint.

In this painting Janet has focused on images of the Yam Flower. The women of Utopia harvest the leaves of the Yam plant for its medicine. They watch the plant for when it’s flowering it is the best time to harvest it’s leaves for medicinal properties.
