Water and Wanampi Snake Dreaming, 2007 by Jorna Nelson Napurrurla 122x91cm

Jorna paints her mother and father’s Jukurrpa (dreaming) stories that relate directly to her land and the plants and animals that inhabit it. These stories were passed down to her by her parents and their parents before them for millennia. Here she paints the classic iconography of Water and Snake Dreaming.
