Nganuwaay Koolyn is a descendant of the Gamilaroi people of the Brewarrina (Ngunnhu) area and the ancient dry-stone fish traps. Nganuwaay has exhibited in Europe, USA, UK and nationally.

Nganuwaay sold her first painting at the ripe age of 17 to a Belgium official and has won several art competitions since. With her brother she curated her first exhibition for her dad at the age of 10 and has since provided artwork for many Indigenous communities for their NAIDOC Celebrations. At the age of 18 Nganuwaay Koolyn was an assistant Director of the National Illicit Drug Campaign in Queensland and held classes for local community members in art, crafts and cooking.

Nganuwaay Koolyn’s artwork is inspired by the Dreamings, Traditions and stories of her ancestry. Her natural and devoted connection with the spiritual vibrations of her culture, flow into her artwork creating a balance of harmonies and spiritual visualisations.

Nganuwaay is the daughter of Mundara Koorang, renowned International and National Aboriginal Artist and Elder of the Eora (Sydney) people.

Nganuwaay’s great grandmother and great-great grandmother were born in Ngunnhu area. Nganuwaay’s great grandmother was separated from her family after the death of her mother, when she was only 13 and was sent to the Cootamundra Home for Girls under the banner of assimilation.
