About the Item
A wonderful, unique, and very engaging original antique/vintage indigenous Australian Aboriginal dreaming painting featuring a rainbow serpent- a prominent figure in Aboriginal mythology/history. Revered by many Aboriginal tribes, this mythical creature is a symbol of creation, fertility, and natural forces (including the shaping of water and landscapes). The Rainbow Serpent is also viewed as a spiritual guardian and remains a central part of Aboriginal Dreamtime stories which are at the core of their belief in the powerful connection between the earth, people, and spirituality.
The painting is made with natural earth ochre pigments which are hand painted on natural organic flattened stringybark wood panels taken usually from eucalyptus trees.
This piece appears to have some age to it and as such somewhat rare.
A striking and original work. Would be a great addition to any Australian Aboriginal or tribal art/artifacts collection or make for an eye-catching stand-alone accent artwork in about any setting.

Contemporary Australian Aboriginal Painting by Walangkura Napanangka
Located in Atlanta, GA
A striking abstract painting by Australian Aboriginal painter Walangkura Napanangka (1940-2014), one of the matching pair painted in 2007 in Alice Spring. Entitled "Kutungka", acrylic on Belgium linen, inscribed on reverse with gallery catalog no.
"Kutungka" depicts the landscape of a country where an old woman named "Kutungka" travelled from Malparingya to Kaltarra in Western Desert during the Dreamtime creation. The highly abstract forms are the dreamtime memory of the land features, such as rock piles and waterholes.
Provenance: Grasstree Gallery, Australia.
It comes with a COA from the gallery as well as progressive photos taken during the creation of this painting by the artist in 2007.
