Wawiriya Burton is an Australian Aboriginal artist. Her paintings are representations of sacred stories from the Dreamtime. Like other Aboriginal artists, the representations are or encrypted for cultural reasons. The full meaning of her artworks can only be understood or deciphered by people who have been initiated. Burton is a ngangkaṟi (traditional healer), so she has more knowledge about sacred traditions than most in her community.

“We cannot live in a world that is interpreted for us by others. An interpreted world is not a home. Part of the terror is to take back our own listening. To use our own voice. To see our own light.”
—mystic, writer, and abbess, Hildegard of Bingen

Wawiriya Burton is a senior woman from the Amata community. In her paintings,  Wawiriya tells the story of her father's country near Pipalyatjara, west of Amata in  South Australia.
"A long time ago, when we were little children, we ran around Puta Puta and Ilitjata, our grangfather's and father's ground, and because of this we grew up strong. Why? Becuase it's Anangu country. Aboriginal people's country. Of their spirit". -Wawiriya Burton,  2017.
