This contemporary dot work is magnificent and inspiring. This is a very beautiful painting with a multi-dimensional nature. The work portrays the initimate connection that the artist has to her desert country. It depicts Anwekety that she refers to as Bush Plum, which in fact are small black conkerberries that grow on the plant after good rain.
Polly began her art career in the late 1970's in the medium of batik with over eighty other women from the Utopia Region in Central Australia. When the acrylics on canvas movement swept Utopia in the late 1980's, Polly like the other women swiftly changed mediums. She often assisted her sister Kathleen and late Emily Kngwarrey Kathleen's popularity as an artist grew in the early 2000, for her simplistic "Bush Plum" paintings. In 1992 she exibited at "Modern Art - Ancient Icon" with The World Bank, USA. Her work has been exhibited around the globe and is also featured frequently at international Aboriginal Art Auctions.
