Balgo Hills Aboriginal Artist - Boxer Milner see the Artists prints Browse Balgo Hills Prints
Aboriginal artist Boxer Milner is a community elder living in Kururrungku Community, which is also known as Billiluna. He and his two brothers are custodians for the country and the stories of the Sturt Creek area. Boxer's paintings all depict different physical and mythological aspects of the middle and upper stretches of Sturt Creek. He often depicts the flooding of the creek, and the changes to the country this brings, both during the flooding and after the water starts to recede. The area of Milnga-Milnga is a major flood plain for Sturt Creek and is inundated every summer after the rains. This is important for all nature, including people, and the artist's family who have always lived here, 'look after' the area by keeping its associated Law and ceremonies. A significant portrayal of the water in Boxer's paintings of Sturt Creek is white, depicting the 'milk water' which runs after rain has fallen in the clay soils upstream of Billiluna. His work includes wonderful rainbows, rain clouds and the temporary creeks that are formed during the wet season. subjects and themes Flooding and seasonal influences on country Sturt Creek environs Rainbow snakes Small bird - tjintapirrinyi collections Kerry Stokes Collection Laverty Collection National Gallery of Victoria Kluge Ruhe Collection USA Berndt Museum of Anthropology University of Western Australia Helen Read Collection exhibitions Individual exhibitions 2003 Purkitji: paintings by Boxer Milner Tjampitjin, Coo-ee Aboriginal Art, Sydney NSW 2000 Boxer Milner, Gallery Gabrielle Pizzi, Melbourne bibliography 1994 Johnson, V., 1994, The Dictionary of Western Desert Artists, Craftsman House, East Roseville, NSW 1994 Dream Journeys Calendar, image reproduction Aboriginal Art Prints Home	region Matwanangu. near Sturt Creek state Western Australia community Balgo Hills born c. 1935 active early 90's Skin Group Tjampitjin language Tjaru art centre Walayiriti Artists, Balgo Hills medium Screenprint and acrylic paint on canvas, limited edition prints.
