357-25AS Adelaide Studio, 28 x 55 x 7cm, Underglaze on Porcelain
Margaret was born in 1957 on her country around the community of Pipalyatjara. She is the daughter of acclaimed APY artist Harry Tjutjuna, who passed away in May 2019, having had a hugely successful artistic career first at Ernabella Arts and then at Ninuku Arts. Margaret moved to Adelaide around 2003. Margaret has a natural gift, which has been apparent ever since her first day painting at the APY studio in May 2019. Margaret's mark-making and aesthetic has similarities with her father's even though she is painting different Tjukurpa (story).
