Mina Mina Jukurrpaby Valda Napangardi Granites
This Jukurrpa comes from Mina Mina, a very important women's Dreaming site far to the west of Yuendumu near Lake MacKay and the Western Australia Border. The Kirda of the Dreaming are Napangardi/Napanangka women and Japanangka/Japangardi men; the area is sacred to Napangardi/Napanangka women. There are a number of Mulju and a Maluri at Mina Mina.

Valda Napangardi Granites is the grand-daughter of the late Paddy Japaljarri Sims (1916 – 2010) and Bessie Nakamarra Sims (1932 – 2012), two founding artists of Warlukurlangu Artists. Valda was born in 1974 in Alice Springs and grew up in Yuendumu, an Aboriginal community located 290 kms north-west of Alice Springs, where she still lives. She attended the local school. Valda has been painting with Warlukurlangu Artists Aboriginal Corporation, an Aboriginal owned and governed art centre located in Yuendumu, since 1993, She paints the Jukurrpa (Dreaming) stories passed down to her by her mother and father and their parents before them for millennia. These are creation stories which closely relate to the features and animals found in her family’s traditional lands. Valda is married and has one daughter. She worked with the Yuendumu Old People’s program before resigning to look after her daughter.
