Belinda Golder Kngwarreye b. 1988

Biography
LANGUAGE: ALYAWARRE
REGION: UTOPIA, NT.

Belinda Golder Kngwarreye is the sister of noted Utopian artist, Janet Golder Kngwarreye. Belinda is following in the footsteps of other well-known artists from the talented Kngwarreye family, most notably Emily Kame Kngwarreye, Kudditji Kngwarreye and her grandmother, Polly Ngale. Belinda typically paints the story handed to her by Polly Ngale, the Bush Plum Dreaming. Belinda uses heavily layered paint to depict the bush plum in various stages of ripening.

 

The bush plum is an important source of vitamin C so is sought-after for its nutritional value, however the women also conduct song and ceremony to the bush plum and that it will continue to provide for them. Just like the artists from which Belinda learnt, Belinda possesses an innate sense of colour. This dreamy and meditative style of painting has often been compared to that of the 19th century Impressionist painters.
