Japaljarry, Sims Paddy (b. 1916) © Warlukurlangu artists of Yuendumu: Dream of a Ceremonial Post. 1991. The Aboriginal artist is a Warlpiri speaker. Australia, Central Desert, Northern Territories. The circular motifs represent stars; the two largest circles are the sites of waterholes. The arches symbolize men engaged in initiation rites and the straight lines stand for assegais (tree) linked to the shin-bones of the initiated by snake-lianas. Acrylic on canvas, 182 x 91 cm. Inv. 72.1991.0.57. Photo: Gérard Blot.
