Margaret Scobie Skin name: Pengarte Year of birth: 1948 Language: Anmatyerre Place of birth: Woolla Downs Margaret is a senior and well-respected woman in the Utopia community. There is a rich artistic tradition that runs in Margaret’s family. She is related to Gloria Petyarre - her first cousin, and to Emily Kngwarreye - her aunt. Both of these artists have achieved national and international recognition. Margaret paints with an abundance of moving brush-strokes that give the illusion of vibrant moving leaves of the Bush Medicine plant, which grows in the desert. Margaret uses an array of colours and the different colours represent the leaves at different times of the year.

Room 5311 Title: Bush Medicine Leaves Room 5309 Title: Bush Medicine Leaves Mary Dixon Nungarrayi Skin name: Nungarrayi Year of birth: 1960 Language: Warlpiri Place of birth: Town Bore Creek Born east of Papunya, Mary Dixon commenced painting in the mid-1980’s. She and her former husband, Colin Dixon Tjapanangka, often collaborated on paintings. Mary Dixon and Goodwin Kingsley Tjapaltjarri (now deceased) lived and produced art in Alice Springs. The characteristic trademark of her paintings is lyrical, pure drawing and bright primary colours. These works refer to the initiation ceremonies that every Aboriginal man has to go through around puberty. Mary is depicting the hair belt that swirls in a hypnotic way around women’s waists when they are dancing at the very beginning of the initiation ceremonies.
