Artist Profile
Naomi Pula Price is an Anmetyerre woman from Boundary Bore, around 300km North East of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory. She comes from one of the most famous painting families in Australia. Her mother is prominent senior Utopian artist Anna Price Petyarre. Encouraged by her mother and other family members, Naomi is now producing excellent artworks.
Her style is similar to the early works of her mother Anna with intricate dot work telling the story of her country and ceremonies.
She is related by marriage to Emily Kame Kngwarreye (her grandfather was Michael Kngwarreye) and her Grandmother is the late Gloria (Glory) Ngale. Gloria was known for her eye for colour, a legacy of her Batik work, which she passed down to her daughters and granddaughters.
Naomi is an exciting third generation Utopian artist now making her mark on the art world.
Artwork Description
This artwork is an intricate expression of the songs and stories associated with Naomi’s plant totem, the Bush Yam, and its seeds. The Bush Yam has been a staple food and water source for the Anmatyerre people for countless years, and the seeds that form and scatter from the plant are ground up to make flour for damper. During ceremony the women pay homage to the yam seeds and give thanks for their abundance and regenerative qualities. By painting to the tempo of a ceremonial song, Naomi expresses her connection to her plant totem in a permanent medium.
