"My painting is about the many different trees I have grown up with. Each tree has its own story. The trees tell us many things: they tell us about the weather that’s coming, the weather that’s been, they show us where soakages and riverbeds are, they point us towards food. It's like my country's own language that I'm sharing in my painting."

Mimili is sited within the beautiful Everard Rangers on the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands in the north-west of South Australia and 488 kilometres south-west of Alice Springs. Mimili is home to 300 Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara people who have been living in the area for millennia in harmony with nature and acting as custodians of the land and the Tjukurpa (creation stories). Mimili was formerly known as Everard Park, which was a cattle station that was returned to Aboriginal ownership through the 1981 AP Lands Act. Mimili Community was incorporated as an Aboriginal Community in 1975.
