This original Aboriginal artwork by Athena Nangala Granites depicts Napaljarri-warnu Jukurrpa, also known as Seven Sisters Dreaming.
Seven Sisters Dreaming is an important Warlpiri story connected to ancestral women, stars, journeys and Country. Athena’s interpretation has a highly contemporary feel, while still carrying cultural knowledge and Dreaming stories passed down through family.
Athena Nangala Granites is a Warlpiri artist from Yuendumu in the Northern Territory. She began painting with Warlukurlangu Artists in 2010 and is a fourth-generation painter, with a strong family connection to the art centre through artists including her mother Geraldine Napangardi Granites and grandmother Alma Nungarrayi Granites. Her modern interpretation of Seven Sisters Dreaming is known for its distinctive, almost celestial style.
