Yinarupa Nangala is an Australian Aboriginal artist born around 1960 near Mukula, Western Australia. A member of the Pintupi people, she perpetuates the artistic heritage of Papunya Tula. Wife of Yala Yala Gibbs Tjungurrayi, she is connected to major figures in Aboriginal art such as Ningura Napurrula and George Ward. She began painting in 1996, but it was from 2005 onwards that her refined style, rooted in Pintupi tradition, gained recognition in the art market. In 2009, she received the prestigious Telstra Award. Her works, created using the black and white dot technique, offer an aerial view of Mukula and the sacred site of Ngamurru, a place of women's rites. Her compositions transcribe the movements of ancestral women, waterholes, and bush foods, such as kampararpa berries. Today, Yinarupa Nangala lives between Kiwirrkurra and Alice Springs, asserting her key role in the contemporary Aboriginal art scene.
