Description
The 'Wanakiji Jukurrpa' [Solanum chippendalei] (Dream of the Bush Tomato) originates from Yaturlu (near Mount Theo, north of Yuendumu). 'Wanakiji' grows in spinifex areas. It is a small, thorny plant with purple flowers that bears fleshy green fruits containing numerous small black seeds. Once the fruits are harvested, the seeds are removed using a small wooden spoon called a 'kajalarra'. The fruits can then be eaten raw or threaded onto skewers called 'turlturrpa' to be cooked over the fire or left to dry. When dried, they are called 'turlturrpa' and the fruits can be stored for a very long time. In contemporary Warlpiri paintings, traditional iconography is used to depict the 'Jukurrpa', particular sites and other elements. The owners of this Dream 'Jukurrpa Wanakiji' are Napanangka/Napangardi women and Japanangka/Japangardi men.
Presentation
Juliette Nakamarra Morris was born in Alice Springs in 1981.
She began painting in 2006 at the Warlukurlangu Artists Aboriginal Corporation, which was founded in Yuendumu in 1985 and mainly supports artists from the Warlpiri and Nyirripi language groups. It is located about 300 km northwest of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory.
She paints her mother's 'Wanakiji Jukurrpa' (The Dream of the Bush Tomato), "Dreams" that relate directly to her land, its special features and the plants and animals that inhabit it. "This is my mother's and grandfather's country".
She can also paint her father's 'Ngarlkirdi Jukurrpa' (Dream of the witchetty worm).
