Mercia Napurrurla Lewis

Warnayaka Art

Mercia has painted at the art centre since 2009 when she lived in Lajamanu.  Since then she now lives in Katherine but always visits family.  When Mercia is here she paints at the art centre.  Mercia paints the traditional stories or body of knowledge for Napurrurla skin.  Diamond doves, snakes, seeds and the harvesting of grain and about where here family comes from – her country.  Her art work is in the tradition of the central desert region of dots.
