Anmanari Brown was born in the 1930’s at Purpurnga and was a leading artist in the Spinifex, Ngaanyatjarra, Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara Lands. Her work is held in high esteem and has been included in many important collections, including the National Gallery of Australia, National Gallery of Victoria, Art Gallery of Western Australia, and Queensland Art Gallery. The artist lived and worked in the Irrunytju Community (Wingellina) - Spinifex country – close to the W.A./S.A. border.

This painting, "Kapi Piti Kutjara Kutjara," represents an important site in the Spinifex country. While Anmanari doesn’t explicitly refer to tracks and topographical features of her country, she does use iconographic symbols and symbolic colour to represent figures and specific places.
