This painting is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Delmore Gallery that states in part: ‘On this canvas, the artist’s choice of yellow represents the most important plant in her custodianship, namely the Anooralya. This hardy and fertile plant provides both a tuber vegetable and a seed bearing flower called Kame – Emily’s tribal name. These flowers contain seeds that are collected for seed cake, damper, medicines and love potions.’
