In her paintings Angelina Pwerle Ngale depicts the native bush plum fruit or ‘Anwekety’.
The Bush Plum is a small black berry which grows on the Conkerberry bush after rain.

The bush is a highly resilient, spiny shrub native found in the arid area of Central Australia.
The berries are collected by the Anmatyerre women and are an important food source for the Anmatyerre people. 

This painting represents the changing seasonal colours of the plant and its fruit. Angelina creates her works through building up textured layers of interlacing dots.
