Selina Teece Pwerle was born in 1977 in her traditional country of Antarrengeny, which lies in Alyawarr country north of the Utopia region approximately 240 km north east of Alice Springs. Selina grew up surrounded by artists and amidst the growing interest in art from the Utopia region. She developed her own artistic talents as a young woman and has developed her own unique styles to represent the plants, flowers and landscapes of her country. She especially paints her country after rains when it is blanketed with lush grasses and flowers.

A favoured theme is the leaves of the spinifex plant as they move in the wind, while gum blossoms outlined in delicate dots and lines are featured in others. Her luminous landscapes are of her father's country and that of her birthplace of Antarrengeny in the heart of Alywarre lands. In brilliant colour and precise detail her expansive vistas depict the rivers, red earth, trees, flowers, hills and the ever-changing light of the Outback with an intimacy born of her own observations and life long knowledge of these lands and that of her forebears who have lived on them for millennia.
