This original Aboriginal artwork by Delores Nangala Robertson depicts Ngapa Jukurrpa, also known as Water Dreaming, connected to Puyurru.
Ngapa Jukurrpa is an important Warlpiri Dreaming story associated with water, rain, storms and Country. Puyurru is a site west of Yuendumu in the Northern Territory, and this Dreaming tells of ancestral events connected to rain clouds, lightning, water soakages and the life-giving importance of water in the desert landscape.
This 76 x 46cm artwork is a lovely size for adding original Aboriginal art to a home, office or meaningful Australian gift. The longer rectangular format gives the piece presence while still making it easy to place in a range of interiors.
Delores Nangala Robertson is known for painting Ngapa Jukurrpa stories with strong pattern work and a deep connection to Country. Her work reflects the continuing importance of Dreaming stories, family knowledge and cultural storytelling through contemporary Aboriginal art.
Currently available to view at our Manly store, this original Aboriginal artwork is a beautiful option for anyone looking to buy Aboriginal art with both visual impact and cultural meaning.
