Bio

Anna Price Petyarre (Australian Aboriginal 1965-) Bio

Anna born 1965 is an Anmatyerre woman from the Boundary Bore area of the former Utopia Station North East of Alice Springs Anna is also known as Anna Pitjara, Anna Price and Anna Price Pitjara She is the daughter of the late Glory Ngarla (Ngale, or Ngal) and niece to the late Emily Kame Kngwarreye and Anna was the second wife of Colin Price Kemarre (deceased 2004) Anna’s mother was known for her batik work and a well-respected artist at Utopia (Anna also worked with the Utopia Batik group) her mother was her first role model Anna Petyarre is related to famous senior artists Emily Kame Kngwarreye and Kudditji Kngwarreye through her grandfather, who was a brother of Emily and Kudditji’s father Anna is a grandmother with five grandchildren Anna is a significant Utopia artist whose fine skills and innovative painting techniques define her impressive portfolio of paintings and subjects Anna has painted since she was child and she predominantly paints the dreamtime story of the Atnwelarre (Pencil Yam) and also Awelye (women’s ceremony and body paint designs) Though she only paints the Atnwelarre Dreamtime, Anna owns other Dreaming stories belonging to Alhalkere country Anna’s work has been exhibited extensively and her work is much sought after Anna divides her time between her home in Atneltyeye (Boundary Bore, Utopia Region) and Alice Springs Anna initially primarily painted Yam Seed Dreaming in a colourful and intricate expression of the songs and stories associated with her plant totem, the Bush Yam, and its seeds The Bush Yam has been a staple food and water source for the Anmatyerre people for countless years and the seeds that form and scatter from the plant are ground up to make flour for damper During ceremony, it is Anna’s duty to pay homage to the yam seeds and give thanks for their abundance and regenerative qualities By painting to the tempo of a ceremonial song, Anna expresses her connection to her plant totem in a permanent medium A versatile and creative artist Anna has changed her painting style radically several times over the last decade and now concentrates on extremely finely dotted works which represent her country and its ceremonial sites at Boundary Bore  Recent works have depicted ancestral country, with fine rows of dots marking out the locations of sandhill and bush country, river flood plains and sometimes waterholes and ceremonial sites Anna illustrates topographically, multi layered components, which are spiritually connected to her homeland of Atneltyeye Anna is famous for her artistic attention to detail in the complex and interwoven designs that she so carefully structures, aimed at expressing her traditional Anmatyerre culture Anna is a traditional woman, participating in Women’s Business and further learning the dreaming stories of her family and her culture.  She is well educated and is a wonderful ambassador for her people and for the Art of Utopia

“Anna’s artwork has been exhibited extensively throughout Australia and also Internationally she has painted for important galleries in many capital cities and has been collected widely by private and corporate collectors throughout Australia, USA, Singapore, United Kingdom, India, Poland, Denmark, Germany and France”
