  • About the Artists

    Our vibrant and dynamic artists are from the Utopia region; a large remote area of Central Australia which, until recently, had no government funded art centre. As a result of their pioneering efforts, they have one of the strongest and richest art histories.

    Yam Dreaming by Dolly Mills Petyarre

    90cm x 90cm

    In the Dreamtime, there are two parts to the Pencil Yam dreaming. Two different kame (pencil yam seeds) were borne that created two different species of pencil yam. One is called Atnwelarr and the other called Arlatyeye. Atnwelarr belongs to Dolly's country, Alhalkere, and it is one of the most important stories for her people.

    Dolly uses dots to depict the kame while linear patterns represent the yam system beneath the ground.
