ILUWANTI KEN
Artist statement
‘I paint the stories of my father’s country – Walawulu Tjukurpa – the story of the eagles. This is my tjukurpa and all of my children’s tjukurpa too.’ Iluwanti says that birds like the walawuru (eagles) and patupiri (swallows) have lessons for Anangu women about how to care for one’s children. These birds build strong wiltjas (shelters) for their family; they hunt for food and protect their young from dangers. Anangu mothers are like the birds; they hunt for food and bring it to their children, they protect their young from danger and build strong, safe homes for their children.
