Kapi tjukurpa

All these rockholes around Irrunytju – Wani Wani, Irrunytju Rockhole, Ulkultjura. This is my father’s country and my grandfather’s country.

Eva was born in Amata Community on the APY Lands of South Australia and belongs to the Pitjantjatjara language and cultural group. Eva has strong connections to Minyma Kutjara tjukurpa (Two Sisters creation story) depicting many aspects of the sisters journey through her paintings. These stories were passed down to her by her aunt, Mrs Kunytjil Cooper, one of the original Irrunytju Artists and a highly regarded minyma pampa (senior woman), respected for her extensive knowledge of women’s tjukurpa.
