Story: Mawurrji
This painting depicts Janganpa Jukurrpa (Brushtail Possum Dreaming) at a site called Mawurrji - a hill west of Yuendumu. In Warlpiri paintings, traditional iconography is used to represent Dreaming stories. In this painting 'Janganpa' tracks are represented by the E shaped figures, and the circles are the trees where the 'Janganpa' once lived.
