==Life==
Mona Rockman was born around 1924 at Mongrel Downs, now Tanami Downs pastoral station, in the Northern Territory, about 700 kilometres north-west of Alice Springs.
''Napaljarri'' (in Warlpiri) or ''Napaltjarri'' (in Western Desert dialects) is a skin name, one of sixteen used to denote the subsections or subgroups in the kinship system of central Australian Indigenous people. These names define kinship relationships that influence preferred marriage partners and may be associated with particular totems. Although they may be used as terms of address, they are not surnames in the sense used by Europeans. Thus 'Mona Rockman' is the element of the artist's name that is specifically hers.
Mona was one of six children of Milkila Jungarayi, and her siblings include artists Biddy Rockman Napaljarri and Peggy Rockman Napaljarri. Mona Rockman is one of the traditional owners recognised in the Tanami Downs land claim, under the Aboriginal Land Rights Act 1976.〔
