The personal retrospective of Aboriginal painter Dorothy Napangardi at Sydney's Museum of Contemporary Art, together with her first Aboriginal Art Prize and her international reputation, give this artist a very special place in contemporary Aboriginal art.

Her highly graphic style and the purity of her compositions are really what her work is all about. Part of the appeal of 'Salt on Mina Mina' is that it can be appreciated on different levels.

The multiple readings that can be made of it enlighten our understanding of this work, but we must not forget the meaning that it has for the cultural custodians of these places, for whom it is a vibrant evocation of the movements of the Aborigines on their sacred land.
