Polly creates her paintings by building up layer upon layer of colour to create multi-dimensional images. Polly Ngale’s paintings often depict bright coloured seeds, a feast for emus, amongst the Bush Plums that grow in her country.

Her paintings are borne from traditional knowledge and her confident approach to painting can be seen in the way she assembles streams of seeds, piling dots upon each other to create rich thick fields employing glowing palettes of colour.

Her subject matter is drawn from acute observation and memory. Intimate knowledge of country, personal history and ancestral journey. Seamless in her portrayal of these elements her paintings are sensory mind maps that Reveal the artists place, and her sense of self all within one framework.
