On her paternal side, she is connected to the Ngarinyin tribe from Derby, which also forms part of the identity of her artwork, along with the Ngarrangkarni (dreamtime) stories associated with her maternal country of Ngargooroon (Texas Downs).
Embracing her Ngarinyin heritage, April explores the figure of the Wandjina – ancestral cloud and rain spirits – and themes of dual tribal identity. Her recent exploration of ochres through microscopy has led to unique canvases that blend art and scientific discovery, showcased at the Powerhouse Museum during the Vivid Festival in 2018. Recognised as one of Warmun's most promising young talents, April's artworks are in high demand.
April Nulgit is committed to celebrating her heritage, inspiring others, and ensuring that the stories and traditions of her culture endure for generations to come.
