Abie
Loy Kemarre
Born: 1972 Utopia Station NT
Country: Anmatyerre
Language: Eastern Anmatyerre
Area: Utopia Region
Abie began painting in 1994 under the guidance of her grandmother, and recognised Indigenous artist, Kathleen Petyarre. A common subject of Abie’s paintings is the Bush Hen Dreaming, a story she has custodial rights of, as well as sandhills and body painting series of works which are more abstract in style. Abie creates paintings that are both powerful and beautiful whilst maintaining an element of sensitivity and strength which she derives from her Dreaming and her country. Abie’s paintings are represented in numerous gallery and private collections including the National Gallery of Australia and the National Gallery of Victoria.
