She lives and paints in the Kiwirrkura Community, although she often travels to Kintore as well as communities further west such as Punmu and Jigalong in Western Australia. Yakari completed her first paintings for Papunya Tula Artists in 1996 after starting as a group with the other Kiwirrkura women.
