Marina Pumani Brown was born in Mimili Community on the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands in the far northwest of South Australia. She comes from a long line of strong female painters. Her grandmother was Milatjari Pumani,who was one of the most famous artists in the APY region

Marina has developed a distinctive interpretation of the Tjukurpa passed on to her through her family line.

She expresses her role in the larger story of cultural continuity in unique and powerful paintings which resemble abstract maps of the landscape. In her work she references the essence of her family’s homeland around Antara and Paralpi, nestled in the granite hills of the Everard Ranges.
