Product Details
In this triptych, 7379DN 7380DN 7381DN (each panel measuring 36 x 122 cm), we see a forest of desert oak trees. Very slow growing, their root system is a third (at least) of the tree, reaching far down to access the water. These beautiful trees are quite majestic in this far west part of the central desert of Australia. One can understand the importance they hold in many dreaming stories.
This dreaming is part of 'Karntakurlangu Jurkurrpa' (which translates as 'belonging to women') in which Dorothy depicts women of the Napangardi/Napanangka kinship group, dancing through their country, singing the world into existence.
This artwork "Karlangu (Digging Sticks) Triptych" is featured on page 7 in the monograph: Honouring and Remembering the Art and Life of Dorothy Napangardi, 1987-2013
