Madeline Curley b. 1976

Madeline Curley is the daughter of renowned artist, Imitjala Curley. Madeline is a self-taught artist and has developed a fluid, sweeping style of painting the Seven Sisters Dreaming story. Madeline paints the part where the sisters are walking across country trying to escape the pursuing man, Nyriu. The roundels on the canvas represent the waterholes and rock-holes where the sisters camped and the overlay of finely dotted winding lines are the paths walked by the women. Madeline is a widely exhibited artist, notably when one of her artworks was projected onto the Sydney Opera House sails in 2019.
