Description
Shirley Macnamara: Dyinala, Nganinya is the first monograph on the artist and showcases 20 years (1998-2019) of her practice, including all major works held in public and private collections.
Stunning studio photography presents the beauty and diversity of her sculptures for the first time, and scholarly contributions from Diane Moon, Curator, Indigenous Fibre Art, Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art; writer, curator and broadcaster Julie Ewington; and Professor Paul Memmott, anthropologist, architect, and Director of the Aboriginal Environments Research Centre (AERC) at the University of Queensland reflect on the observations of nature that underpin Macnamara's practice, as well as on her cultural background.

About the Author
Shirley Macnamara is a mid-career Indigenous artist whose sculptures made from spinifex grass are an expression of the western Queensland country where she lives and works. Macnamara has family connections throughout Spinifex Country, a region named for the hardy, stringy grass that covers its rich soil, and she distils her rich and complex life experiences into sculptures that are not only contemporary but also honour cultural resonances from the past.
