Paji Wajina Yankarr Honeychild - Rockhole - My Country, 2004

Cooee Art Indigenous Fine Art Auction "Paji Honeychild was born at Kuntumarrajarra in the+AKA-Great Sandy Desert. She began painting at the Karrayili Adult Education Centre and took part in its first exhibition at the Tandanya National Aboriginal Cultural Institute+AKA-in Adelaide in 1991. The recurring theme in her works were Jila (waterholes) at various sites in the Great Sandy Desert. This superb and beautifully resolved painting, depicting her beloved sandhill country and precious living water at Yirtil, was created by Paji Honeychild during the last year of her life when she was over 90 old. In this evocative painting, the powerful life-forces of her familial rockhole define and energise the surrounding country, while the gleaming bands of a rainbow cast over its sky signifies the passing of an important rainfall event and the renewal of life. The spring-fed rockhole lies in the heart of her country. Living a traditional nomadic life around the jila and ephemeral water sources of her country, she+AKA-became an accomplished hunter and gatherer of a diverse range of bush foods and medicines. In later life, she was recognised as an exceptional artist, her works giving emphasis to the temporary, seasonal, and permanent cycles of water with harmonious tension in a celebration of her desert life and her nomadic ancestors.+IB0 Contact Cooee Art for more information on this Aboriginal artwork.
