Nathania was born into a family of artists, and grew up listening to her mother’s and her father’s Jukurrpa stories. She has been painting with Warlukurlangu Artists since 2011 and paints her father’s Jukurrpa, particularly Ngapa Jukurrpa (Water Dreaming) and Warlukurlangu Jukurrpa (Fire Country Dreaming). She also paints her grandmother’s Yanjirlpirri Napaljarri-Warnu Jukurrpa (Star or Seven Sisters Dreaming). These stories have been passed down over generations for millennia and relate directly to the land, its features and the plants and animals that inhabit it. Nathania uses an unrestricted palette to depict a modern interpretation of her traditional culture.

To care for the jewellery keep it in the protective packaging and wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid spraying with perfume or other sprays and keep out of direct sunlight for long periods of time.
