Catherine “Cathy” Stassi was born on Bathurst Island and, as a young child, moved with her family to Pirlangimpi on Melville Island. She attended the local school before continuing her education at Kormilda College in Darwin.
After completing her schooling, Catherine returned to Pirlangimpi, where she married at the age of seventeen and raised seven children. She is now a proud grandmother to seventeen grandchildren, with more to come.
Once her children were older, Catherine worked with Kids Safe and the Women’s Centre, and also began painting with Munupi Arts, developing her own artistic practice alongside her strong involvement in community life.
Artwork Description
During ceremony on the Tiwi Islands a series of ‘yoi’ (dances), are performed; some are totemic (inherited from the person’s Mother) and some serve to act out the narrative of newly composed songs.
Participants in these ceremonies are painted with turtiyanginari (the different natural ochre colours) in varying designs, transforming the dancers and, in some cases, providing protection against recognition by mapurtiti (spirits).
These designs can be applied in different ways, one of which is using the finger, or in this case a brush. Painting of the face also occurs. These significant artistic designs collectively are called ‘Jilamara’.
