Dogs in the Camp

Tilly was married to the Papunya Tula artist Limpy Tjapangardi, a Luritja Arrente man.

She learned to paint watching her husband at Papunya but only recently started painting at Ikuntji Women’s and Art Centre when she moved to Haasts Bluff after the death of her husband.

Tilly is profoundly deaf and has never developed oral language but is proficient with indigenous sign language.

She is a well respected medicine woman and proficient hunter, regularly hunting for bush tucker like goanna and witchetty grubs.

Her Tjukurrpa is Dog dreaming or papa tjukurrpa and is based in her father’s country around Uluru and Neunman.

Tilly tells the stories of the dogs hunting and doing business in this country as they travel through to Haasts Bluff.
