Kudditji, the younger brother of the late Emily Kame Kngwarreye, has actively painted since 1986. He took a radical path with his painting style in the mid-1990s, moving away from the common pointillist style associated with the Utopia region. Kudditji uses a heavily loaded brush and a bright palette to create forms that sweep broadly across the canvas with progressive blocks of stippled colour sectioned alongside each other. His subjects are mostly Emu and Men’s Ceremonial Dreamings. Kudditji has an ability to capture light in a unique way within his paintings. His works are held in major national and international private and corporate collections.
