Queenie McKenzie (Nakarra) (Oakes, or Mingmarriya ) (c. 1920 – 1998) was a contemporary Indigenous Australian artist. She was born on Old Texas Station, on the western bank of the Ord River in the East Kimberley. ==Early life== Queenie McKenzie's mother was Malngin/Gurindji and her father was a white horse-breaker.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.aboriginalartonline.com/art/queenie.php )〕 Under the existing policy during the time of her youth, Queenie was at risk of removal by the government to an orphanage—as was the fate of many aboriginal children with mixed parentage at the time (see Stolen Generations). Queenie's mother, however, managed to prevent the displacement of her child by reportedly blackening her skin with coal, and the young girl grew up working for the stockmen of the cattle station at Texas Downs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.aiam100.com/profile.php?id=NakarraQueen )〕 Queenie McKenzie lived her entire life in the Shire of Wyndham-East Kimberley, knew the landscape intimately, and is quoted as saying: "Every rock, every hill, every water, I know that place backwards and forwards, up and down, inside out. It's my country and I got names for every place."〔 McKenzie took two Aboriginal names, once stating, "my name been grow up from these hills". Mingmarriya references the country near Dingo Springs on Texas Downs Station East of Warmun (Turkey creek), Western Australia where the artist lived and painted.
