About the Artist: Kenny Williams Tjampitjinpa, son of the artist Naata Nungurrayi and younger brother of the artist Ronnie Tjampitjinpa, was born near Kiwirrkura. The family lived at first a nomadic existence in the region of Wilkinkarra and was brought in 1963 to Papunya by a government patrol, as part of a government program to put Aborigines in reservations. Later Kenny Williams Tjampitjinpa moved to Balgo on the northern edge of the Great Sandy Desert. Much later, he returned to Papunya and in 1981 moved again north to Walungurru. He won the NATSI Art Award in Darwin in September 2000.
