Explications pour cette peinture Aborigène :
The Watarru Collaborative consists of the 3 artists Wipana Jimmy and her daughters Beryl Jimmy and lmitjala Pellard, all from the very remote community of Watarru on the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) lands in South Australia. Together these three women depict Creation stories that have been passed down through countless generations. Their paintings show a particular sensitivity to the way these creation myths interact with and shape their beloved homeland.
Kuka mamu : there’s an animal crouching down there in Nyapari. Two men making (tjara) shields. They go to hunt that kuka by spearing him. Share with family and then we go down to Watarru way. Family sitting down the bottom rock hole (Iwarawara). There’s plenty of water there.
