Artist: Lindy Brodie

Region: Tennant Creek

Skin: Nungarrayi

Language: Warramungu

Story: Born 1973. Lindy has been painting with Julalikari Arts since 2003, and before that at Jukurrpa Arts in Alice Springs. Her life is closely linked to the Barkly region and her works document her intense knowledge of her land and it's history. She came to pre-emminence with a series of works that recorded every aspect of the building of the Alice Springs-Darwin rail link through her country. Her depiction of the rocky spinifex country that she lives in is truly evocative. In 2006 she has been revisiting her family history ... the everyday occurrences from the 40's to 90's create an important social bi-line. Throughout her career Lindy has constantly returned to her Christian Biblical depictions, reflecting her strong beliefs again, from her childhood station-life religious instruction.
