About Artist:
Michelle Possum was born at Napperby Station, North West of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory and is the youngest of two daughters. She was taught to paint along with her sister the artist Gabriella Possum Nungurrayi and her brother Lionel Possum by their father Clifford Possum Tjapaltjarri one of the most renowned painters of the founding group of Papunya artists. Michelle’s work has a strong connection to her land as well as stories passed down to her by her father. Her paintings can incorporate strong figurative elements as well important topography relating to her family’s country, such as the abundance of food and water. Her Dreamings include bush coconut, black seed, exploding seed pod, seven sisters and women’s stories from the Mt. Allan area. Michelle first exhibited with her father and sister Gabrielle Possum in Brisbane in 1987 and again at Cooee Gallery in Sydney in 1992.
