Biography
Born near Kiwirrkura c. 1920, Milliga was a Kukatja speaker. Her country was Purrungu and Mulyurtju. She lived at Balgo and started painting for Warlayirti Artists in 1989. Despite being very elderly, the artist loved painting and seemed to enjoy conveying something of her feelings for her country. All of her works tell of the food and wood sources in the area where she lived for many years. Towards the end of her life, she produced a series of totally abstract works marked by layers of hazy dotting. Writers: Johnson, Vivien Date written: 1994 Last updated: 2011
