MAUREEN PURVIS

Maureen Purvis Kngwarreye is an Anmatyerre woman from Boundary Bore in the Utopia Homelands, Central Australia. She is a younger artist (born in 1970) who enjoys using bold and bright colours when depicting her plant totem, the Bush Yam. Maureen is the daughter of Greeny Purvis Petyarre who is a senior artist and law man at Utopia, Greeny also paints Bush Yam Dreamings but in a very different style to his daughters.

Maureen is from a family of artists, her sisters Judy and Jennifer also paint and her aunt is Evelyn Pultara, winner of the Telstra General Painting award 2005. Maureen’s work has instant appeal and she consistently experiments with technique whilst maintaining a soft yet colourful palette. It will be interesting to watch how her career as an artist progresses with further exposure nationally and overseas
