Meredith and her sister have followed their famous mother in her arts practice, as Imitjala has worked intermittently with Kaltjiti Arts since it began as a craft room in the early sixties. As the daughter of a senior traditional woman, Meredith holds cultural knowledge relating to the Ngapari – sugar leaf or lerp – Tjukurpa at Watarru. Her connection to the Kampurparpa Tjukurpa in the Walytjitjata region is through her mother’s mother, Puni Puni. It is a small homeland just over the Northern Territory border about 46km north of Kalka on the APY Lands.
