Jacob Japanangka Dixon Ready-to-Hang Aboriginal Artwork
This original Aboriginal artwork by Jacob Japanangka Dixon depicts Ngapa Jukurrpa, also known as Water Dreaming, connected to Pirlinyarnu.
Ngapa Jukurrpa is a Warlpiri Dreaming story connected to water, rain, storms and Country. Pirlinyarnu, also known as Mt Farewell, is the traditional Country associated with this story, with the Dreaming relating to water sources, rain clouds, plants, animals and the life-giving importance of water in the desert landscape.
Pre-stretched and ready to hang, this 30 x 30cm artwork is a lovely choice for gifting. It is a thoughtful option for birthdays, thank you gifts, farewells, corporate gifts, housewarmings or special Australian souvenirs, especially for someone wanting original Aboriginal art that can be displayed straight away.
The 30 x 30cm ready-to-hang size is also popular with customers looking for an Australian gift to take overseas. It is small enough to fit into many suitcases, while still feeling meaningful, original and more lasting than a standard souvenir.
Currently available at our Balmain store, this piece is a beautiful option for anyone looking to buy affordable Aboriginal art in Sydney. It suits a bedroom, hallway, office, work desk, shelf area or grouped art display, while still offering the story and presence of an original artwork.
This artwork comes from Warlukurlangu Artists Aboriginal Corporation in Yuendumu, Central Australia. Established in 1985, it is one of the longest running Aboriginal-owned art centres and operates as a 100% Aboriginal-owned, not-for-profit organisation.
More than 600 artists from Yuendumu, Nyirripi and surrounding communities contribute their work. Warlukurlangu is renowned for its colourful acrylic paintings and limited-edition prints, which have been exhibited nationally and internationally.
The name “Warlukurlangu” means “belonging to fire” in the Warlpiri language. The centre exists to maintain and share Indigenous culture, support artists, and pass traditions to future generations.
