PATSY MARFURA
Patsy Marfura is a Ngangiwumerri speaker, born at the Daly River Mission in 1942. In her late thirties she moved her husband and six children to Peppimenarti. There, her grandmother and other elders taught her to weave dilly bags and mats.
Patsy started painting in 2001. By transferring the patterns and rhythms of weaving and body painting directly onto the canvas, Patsy realises sculptural forms in two dimensions.
Patsy predominantly paints durrmu (body painting dot) and fi (sand-palm twine) subjects. The sand-palm twine is the fibre used for weaving dilly bags and fish-nets. The fi paintings are restrained studies of organic line, whereas her durrmu are layered veils of dotted marks using carefully chosen colour studies: browns, plums and purples or citrus tones, for example.
