Evelyn Nangala Robertson was born in 1986 in Alice Springs Hospital, the closest hospital to Yuendumu, a remote Aboriginal community 290 km north-west of Alice Springs in Australia. She is the daughter of Tina Napangardi Martin Robertson and grand-daughter of Shorty Jangala Robertson, both artists in their own right.
Evelyn mainly paints her Grandfather's Jukurrpa stories, but also her Father's and her Grandmother's Jukurrpa, Dreamings which relate directly to her land, its features and the plants and animals that inhabit it. As a little girl I use to watch My Grandmother and Mum paint and they would tell me a story about the painting, the dream-time. Evelyn uses an unrestricted palette to develop a modern interpretation of her traditional culture.
