Davor lebte sie mit acht ihrer engsten Angehörigen in dem Gebiet westlich von Lake Mackay. Man nimmt an, dass Yukultji, als sie mit ihrer Familie nach Kiwirrkura kam, 14 Jahre alt war. Im Jahre 1999 beteiligte sich Yukultji an dem gemeinschaftlichen Gemälde der Frauen von Kiwirrkura, das im Rahmen des „Western Desert Dialysis Appeal“ (Dialyse Aufruf der Western Desert Region) entstand. Sie wurde 2005 ausgewählt, als eine von neun Künstlern und Künstlerinnen auf der angesehenen Primavera Show im Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney auszustellen. Dies ist eine begehrte Ausstellung für junge australische Künstler unter 35 Jahren. Im September 2009 reiste Yukulti gemeinsam mit der Künstlerin Doreen Reid Nakamarra nach New York, um die Ausstellung „Nganana Tjungurringanyi Tjukurrpa Nintintjakitja – We are here sharing our Dreaming“ in der 80 Washington Square East Gallery zu besuchen. 2015 wurde sie eingeladen, bei der 8th Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art in der Queensland Gallery of Modern Art auszustellen.

  • Mr R Peters 1934 - 2020, Springvale Station, Turkey Creek, WA
    Mr R Peters 1934 - 2020, Springvale Station, Turkey Creek, WA BIOGRAPHY: Rusty Peters is a senior Gija man of Juwurru skin. His bush name Dirjji refers to dingo pups looking out of a hole at the sunrise. He was born under a Warlagarri or Supplejack tree on Springvale Station south west of Turkey Creek the same day as his jimarri or age mate Charlie McAdam. His spirit came from a crocodile his father had killed when his mother became pregnant. He grew up on Springvale learning traditional law and working as a stockman and at other things such as welding fences and stock yards. When his father was killed in a tragic riding accident at Roses Yard, the family moved to Mabel Downs where he became renowned as a horse breaker. He lived for some time at Nine Mile reserve at Wyndham after the introduction of award wages forced people off stations but then moved to Turkey Creek where with other senior Gija artists such as Hector Jandany and George Mung-Mung he helped start the school. In 1989 he moved to Kununurra where he was employed at Waringarri Aboriginal Arts as an assistant. He was a long time friend of Rover Thomas, caring for him on most of the trips he made in the later part of his life. He made prints and did some painting while working for Waringarri Arts. He moved to Crocodile Hole when Freddie Timms based the Jirrawun Aboriginal Arts group there in 1997 and began to paint on large canvases. His detailed knowledge of the land and stories from Springvale and neighbouring Moolabulla stations is reflected in distinctive paintings in traditional red and yellow ochres and black charcoal.
