Rosie Tasman Napurrurla Grass Seed Dreaming - Ngurlu I 2002
Screenprint: Opaque paint on 6 acetates 705x495mm, 760x560mm $550
This story is for the Naparrula and Nakamarra women (mothers and daughters and Jupurrula and Jakamarra men
(fathers and sons) skin groups. The print shows ant nests interconnected with the tracks of the ants as they
collect grass seeds to turn in to milk for their baby ants. Kulukuku, the bush pigeon, also gathers grass seeds
that have fallen to the ground while the women gather seeds from the long stems and use them to make damper.
This Dreaming takes place near the Granites in the Tanami Desert at a place called Miya Miya.
