- Aboriginal Painting by Cornelia Tipuamanturriri, Tiwi IslandLocated in NICE, FRThis painting comes from the Jilamara Design art center and dates back to 2013. It is made with earth ochres bound with acrylic pigment. Cornelia is considered a great artist of the first generation from this region. A certificate of authenticity is included. Cornelia Tipuamantumirri was born in Pirlangimpi (Garden Point), Melville Island, around 1930. Her father's ancestral land is Imalu Point, Melville Island, and her mother's ancestral land is Munupi, Melville Island. Her skin group is Warntarringa (Sun) and her dream is Jarrikalani (Turtle). Tipuamantumirri lives and works in Pirlangimpi, where she is an initiated and respected Tiwi elder. Tipuamantumirri uses the kayimwagakimi, a traditional carved wooden painting comb with a single row of teeth. Using a palette of ochres in pinks, yellows, blacks, and browns, her work depicts significant aspects of Tiwi life and culture with repeated dotted lines referencing yirrinkiripwoja (body painting) and the tidal movements of the surrounding seas. Tipuamantumirri, who began painting in 2010, is also an experienced weaver.
