Charmaine Pwerle is a proud Alyawarre and Anmatyerre woman, born into one of the most distinguished artistic lineages in Australian Aboriginal art. Among her most recognisable works are those depicting ‘Awelye’ – body paint designs used by women in ceremonial practice. With linear and curved forms, ochre tones, and sacred symbolism, her paintings reflect a sacred intimacy with women’s business, Country and culture.
