Story

Zeza Nampijinpa Egan Biography

Zeza is an outstanding colourist and has a fine sense of composition. She was originally called Noreen until a relative with that name passed away. In a community it is hurtful to hear the name of a deceased person so they are referred to as Kumunjayi and anyone with the same name can either take a new name or also be called Kumunjayi. She lived in Ali Curung for over ten years and painted for Arlpwe Art & Culture Centre. She has also painted for Warlukurlangu Artists. Her paintings are in private collections across Australia and overseas. Zeza Egan’s work is characterised by her attention to detail.

Zeza’s father was Ted Jangala Egan, a renowned tracker and founding member of Warlukurlangu Artists of Yuendumu. Zeza lives between Ali Curung and Yuendumu and the wider world.
