My Grandfather grew up in Papunya. I’m so lucky that I learnt so much from him. I remember in the 1980s, he used to tell us stories.”
Warrick Japangardi Miller is a proud Warlpiri man. He was born in Katherine in 1987. His mother grew up between Chila Well and Lajumanu, and father in Mt Theo, an outstation North-West of Yuendumu.
Warrick started painting three years ago in Mount Theo and has since moved to Ali Curung where he paints with Arlpwe Art and Culture Centre. He primarily paints Jukurrpa designs that have been passed on to him from his Great-Grandfather and other Warlpiri lawmen.
Warrick has exhibited at multiple Desert Mob exhibitions as well as in group shows alongside fellow Arlpwe artists at Japingka gallery in Fremantle and Modern Times gallery in Collingwood.
