Nora Nyut Jangka Davidson
Nora is a bush baby having been born in the bush near Mantamaru (Jameson) WA. Nora now lives at Papulankutja (Blackstone) with her family and continues many of the traditional culture and law practices. Nora's family is custodian of the Illurrpa Story about an ancestral snake called Kuniya, who stayed long enough to make and lay seven eggs. A matted black fibre found at Illurrpa rock hole is said to come from the hair of her many victims which Kuniya has eaten and then regurgitated when she fell ill. The dark streaky features in the landscape are said to be the black hair flowing down the hillside to Illurrpa.

Multju
This is the place where Nora was born. It is Mulga country and a great place to find Honey Ants. There is a story of a mother with her two children and they have great success in this place finding honey ants. They enjoy the sweet reward for their efforts.

Papulankutja Artists
Papulankutja (Blackstone) is a remote Aboriginal Community, located at the foothills of the Blackstone Ranges in the Ngaanyatjarra Lands, Western Australia. Papulankutja Artists evolved out of the Women's Centre where painting was encouraged as an activity since 2001.
Once registered as an Aboriginal Corporation in 2014 the artists were now able to govern their art centre independently. In 2009 Papulankutja Artists moved into a purpose built art centre with rooms for men and women to paint. As well as their paintings Papulankutja Artists are known for their innovative fibre work and carvings from local wood.
