Artist details JOY NANGALA BROWN Joy Nangala Brown was born in Alice Springs in 1966 and grew up in the remote Tanami Desert region of Central Australia. Joy is the daughter of successful Pintupi artist Pegleg Jampijinpa and her paintings depict Dreamtime Stories, which have been passed down to her through many generations of her ancestors over thousands of years. The Pintupi ancestral homelands are in the remote Western Desert region around the Western Australia and Norther Territory border. The Pintupi were one of the last Aboriginal groups to make contact with white Australians. The last Pintupi to leave their traditional nomadic lifestyle in the desert, in 1984, are a group known as the Pintupi Nine. Joy paints with the world acclaimed Warlukurlangu Artists, an Aboriginal owned arts centre at Yuendumu, a remote Aboriginal community 290km north-west of Alice Springs. Warlukurlangu supports Aboriginal artists in Central Austral to preserve their traditional culture. Joy Nangala Brown’s paintings have been exhibited in major art galleries in Australia and around the world including, USA, United Arab Emirates and Singapore. |

Customer Reviews

Mainie is a brand I proudly wear for so many reasons. I love that each scarf has a story and that I know with each piece funds go back to the woman that designed it. I adore the vibrancy of the colours and the high quality, I have had my scarves for many years now and they are so versatile from wearing them to do presentations or going out for lunch. I stand for empowering women and standing proud in your individuality and Mainie embodies this in every way.

Our Mainie scarves have become an essential wardrobe component both at home and when travelling. They serve to elevate any outfit whilst also celebrating Australian First Nations culture with dignity and sophistication. The silk product is beautiful to wear and the merino wool is unbelievable soft and so warm. Lightweight, easy to pack and always commented on.

I love the Mainie Scarves, for myself and as the perfect gift. They are investment pieces that will be part of your wardrobe for life. I love travel and one or two scarves are always included in my luggage. They are perfect on the plane and for dressing up outfits. I take a Merino scarf for cooler climates and silk ones everywhere else. However, the very best part is the ethical basis of the brand. I know I support a woman artist from a First Nations community when I purchase something from Mainie. They look good and do good at the same time.
