Jilamara
Alison Puruntatameri grew up in Pirlangimpi Community on Melville Island which is the big island of the Tiwis. She has one daughter known as Sugar Plum who is a great favourite at the art centre studio where Alison paints with her mother Paulina (Jedda) sharing the care of Sugar while one or the other paints. It was Alison’s grandfather, Justin Puruntatameri (dec), a senior law man, that knew all the songs and remembered visits by the Macassans as a boy who told Alison the stories of his paintings and encouraged Alison to paint.
