Discover authentic Aboriginal art that celebrates the world’s oldest continuing culture, with designs inspired by Country, storytelling and connection to land.
This colourful dot painting is by Freda Napaljarri Jurrah.
Freda was born in 1956 and at a young age she moved to the remote Aboriginal community of Yuendumu, where the Warlukurlangu Art Centre is based. She created her first artwork with the art centre in 1992 but in 2004 started painting more consistently, telling her Grandfather's Jukurrpa stories through her paintings. In this piece, she paints a part of the ceremony in which young men are initiated, dancing with 'witi' (10-12 foot long ceremonial poles) tied to their shins.
Make a statement in your home with Aboriginal art that’s bold, meaningful and deeply connected to Country.
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.
