BRENDA DINKUM NINGARMARA

Waringarri Aboriginal Arts

“I was born in Kununurra. I now have five children. I watch the old people painting – that’s how I got started. It teaches me about Country.
I am ready to take over the stories of my mother. I learnt from her to tell her stories and pass them on to my children and
grandchildren.”
Brenda is a dedicated artist and her arts practice includes ochre painting and textiles. She has worked at the art centre as a Miriwoong
Tour Guide and has been a Director on the Waringarri Arts’ Board.
