Bio

Born: c.1922
Region: Utopia
Language Group: Anmatyerre and Alyawarr

Emily’s extended family, full of artists including sister the late Minnie Pwerle, Barbara Weir, Aileen and Betty Mpetyane, all encouraged Emily and sisters Geyla and Molly Pwerle to paint with their famed sister Minnie. They have enjoyed their time painting immensely. Emily is from the Utopian region and more often relies on linear compositions with a certain degree of boldness in her works.
