“My paintings are of my Country: my father’s Country, my grandmother’s Country, the tjala (honey ant) Country. Everything that my grandmother taught me, I’m teaching to my grandchildren now. They dance because I have shared what I got from my grandmother with my granddaughters, so they can know their culture. I am the Traditional Owner for Amata and the Tjala (Honey Ant) Tjukurpa. I was given the Tjala Tjukurpa by my great-grandparents and my grandparents. My father, Mick Wikilyiri was born at Apara, a spring near Amata. This is Tjala Country.”
