Biography
Born “in the bush” around Lake Wills c. 1925, Nagomara was one of several senior Tjakamarra men in the Balgo community whose work primarily concerned Water Dreaming and rituals associated with rainmaking. His country was in the Stansmore Ranges around Mangkai. He was custodian of various Tingari and Water Dreaming stories for this area. He also painted the area around Nguntalpi, a very sacred place of many rocks and caves, where his father is buried. A Kukatja speaker, Albert Nagomara began painting for Warlayirti Artists in 1988. His works generally use strong, simple motifs, such as roundels and watercourses, but beneath their simplicity lies a great reservoir of Law matters.
