STORY
Rachael comes from the third generation of Lionel women painting at Ernabella Arts. Rachael draws inspiration for her paintings from the stories and messages she receives through her dreams. Kapi Wankanya represents one of these dreams and tells a story of living water, sacred water. In the context of the dream, Rachael speaks of the sensation of floating in water and also feeling its healing force inside her body. “Kapi Wankanya is a powerful water story."
