Meet Regina Pilawuk Wilson at the opening tomorrow (5/25) at SSG or tonight (5/24) at the Kluge Ruhe or at the Guided Artist Tour in the gallery on Saturday (5/26). Here is more information about Regina Pilawuk Wilson, a Ngan’gikurrungurr woman, was born in 1948 in the Daly River region of the Northern Territory. Together with her husband, Harold Wilson, Regina founded the Peppimenarti (meaning ‘large rock’) Community as a permanent settlement for the Ngan’gikurrungurr people in the Daly River region, south-west of Darwin in 1973. The location of the community is an important dreaming site for the Ngan’gikurrungurr language group and is situated amid wetlands and floodplains at the centre of the Daly River Aboriginal Reserve, 300 kilometers south-west of Darwin. Regina won the General Painting category of the Telstra National Indigenous and Torres-Strait Islander Award in 2003 for a golden syaw (fish-net) painting. -Durrmu Arts Aboriginal Corporation durrmuarts.com.au Image: Artist Regina Pilawuk Wilson.
