About the Item
Lily Nungarrayi Hargraves (b. 1930 - d. 2018) reached her adolescence walking across the Tanami Desert in time to the rhythm of environmental change. She later began a more sedentary life in Lajamanu, which became one of a second wave of artistic centres for Indigenous contemporary art in 1986 after the example set by the artists of Papunya Tula.
Hargraves' painting of the turkey 'Jukurrpa' (Dreaming, or creation time) pictures the splayed, three-toed footprints of the 'wardilyka' (bush turkey). The contrast between the pictorial simplicity and the grandeur of the painting's scale conveys the artist's certainty in the value of these motifs.
