Purnululu – Bungle Bungles – Marietta Bray
This painting shows the country that Marietta’s mother comes from, Purnululu. It is also the country of her uncle, renowned Warmun artist Jack Britten. Purnululu ( The Bungle Bungles) is located 55 kms south west of the Warmun Community. It is a significant point of reference for many Gija people and has many sacred places located within its striped domes. Marietta paints this country using a strong sense of design and pattern.
