Biography
A senior woman of the Mulan/Balgo communities, Eubena was born 'in the bush’ about 1930 or earlier, in the area near Well 33 on the Canning Stock Route. Eubena paints Tingari stories for the lands around the Northern Canning Stock Route, including the Nyilla Rockhole, north of Jupiter Well, where the artist spent much of her youth. These include the Kangaroo Dreamings of Warntartarri and Wuntaru/Yintarnyu. She began painting in 1986. She usually works with her husband Wimmitji Tjapangati , and as such their works are often extremely similar. Her daughter Emma Gimme sometimes assisted on her mother’s canvases. Eubena’s canvases exhibit a strong sense of country and have a sense of timeless tradition and are full of mythological associations. Writers: Johnson, Vivien Date written: 1994 Last updated: 2011
