About Artwork
Code: EDA-EM1936/20
Artist: Elizabeth Mbitjana
Region: Utopia, Central Australia
Medium: Polymer acrylic on linen
Size: 120cm x 150cm
Artist Information
Elizabeth Mbitjana is the daughter of Kathleen Ngala (now deceased) and niece to Angelina Ngala renowned exponents of the traditional dot-dot topographical paintings of the native bush plum. For years Elizabeth observed her mother and aunties’ painting while she listened to their stories and songs of the bush plum Ancestor and its importance to the local people.
Elizabeth paints fine layers of white dots over a dark background and then scatters coloured dots to create a shimmering, multi-dimensional effect to reveal the Bush Plum (Ankwekety) and her country of Alparra.
Elizabeth’s paintings can be seen as depictions of the topography of their country as they reflect the changing seasonal influences on the Bush Plum plant which is of great significance to the Anmatyerre and Alyawarre women of the Eastern Desert region.
