"Yam Dreaming (Red Dots)" is a 1995 painting by Emily Kame Kngwarreye, an Aboriginal artist who rose to prominence in the latter part of her life. This painting, created just a year before her death, uses a vibrant red against a white background, a common color palette for Kngwarreye. The dense grid of dots and lines reflects her distinct style, often employing dots to represent various aspects of her culture, including the yam and its important role in the lives of her people.
