Alkuwari Dawson was a Ngaanyatjara artist from Tjun Tjun rockhole, near Warburton community, Western Australia. Dawson's work is held by the National Gallery of Australia, National Gallery of Victoria and other important collections.

"This is ngayuku country. You can see green grass, creeks, all the plants growing. The creek goes into the sandhill, and that Ninu (bilby) goes in and out of the ground, along the creek. You can't see him now 'cause he went into that sandhill."
