WATIYA TJUTA TREE
Mitjili paints the Watiya Tjuta tree. Mitjili’s style is unique and recognisable. The Watiya Tjuta in Mitjili’s paintings are her father’s Tjukurrpa (Dreaming) in Ilyingaungau country (Gibson Desert).
This was passed down to her by her mother, Tjunkayi Napaltjareri, through storytelling, using the same method to draw the story as it is told in the traditional way. She remembers, “…After I got married, my mother taught me my father’s Tjukurrpa in the sand, that’s what I’m painting on the canvas”, a woman’s interpretation.
