Ngurlu Jukurrpa (Native Seed Dreaming)
$270.00
Nakamarra/Napurrurla women and Jakamarra/Jupurrurla men. The Jukurrpa is associated with a place called Jaralypari, north of Yuendumu. Lukarrara is a species of Fimbristylis, a grass that bears edible seeds in the winter-time. The seeds are traditionally ground on a large stone (‘puturlu’) with a smaller stone (‘ngalikirri’) to make flour. This flour is mixed with water (‘ngapa’) to make small seed cakes. In contemporary Warlpiri paintings traditional iconography is used to represent the Jukurrpa, particular sites and other elements. In paintings of this Jukurrpa large concentric circles are used to represent Jaralypari and dots surrounding these circles are often depicting the ‘ngurlu’.

Warlukurlangu Artists & Jirtirlparnta Artists Shipping policy
Yuendumu does not have a reliable mail service so parcels are generally driven to Alice Springs, 300 kms from Yuendumu, once a week.
Every effort is made to dispatch artworks as quickly as possible, but specific delivery times cannot be guaranteed. Please keep in mind that you are purchasing something from a very remote community. Parcels purchased while the art fair is in progress in Darwin will also take a little longer to post as most of the staff are in Darwin. So please keep this in mind and expect a longer than normal delay.
Any paintings under 1 metre are shipped via Australia Post, express. Paintings over a metre long need to be sent via Northline, road, and will require a work delivery address if possible.

The artwork must be returned in its original condition with all of its accompanying documentation for the guarantee to apply.
