Aubrey was born on 11th February 1974 at the Pintupi outstation of Yayi Yayi, approximately 30km west of Papunya. Yayi Yayi was a temporary settlement set up by the Pintupi people as they began their migration back to their Western Desert homelands from Papunya, where they had earlier been centralised by the government welfare branch. After the establishment of Walungurru (Kintore) in the early eighties, Aubrey lived for a while on his father’s oustation known as Ininti, slightly north west of the community.
Aubrey went through traditional law in Tjukurla and has since been a permanent resident of Walungurru (Kintore). He is the son of world renowned painter Ronnie Tjampitjinpa, a shareholder, former Director of Papunya Tula Artists, and one of the most successful artists in the company’s history. His mother, Mary Brown Napangati is also a significant senior
Papunya Tula artist.
Aubrey learned to paint studying under his father in the Kintore studio for many decades. He painted his first works for Papunya Tula Artists in 2019, having inherited custodial rights for his father’s Tjukurrpa (Dreaming Stories) and signature mark-making techniques, as is traditional. As a traditional owner of the Country close to Walungurru, Aubrey’s paintings refer to the stories central to that area, including the stories of the Minyma Kutjarra (Two Travelling Women), Ngintaka (Perentie Dreaming) and Waru (Fire Dreaming) at Wilkinkarra (Lake Mackay).
