Artwork Story
This print depicts sandhill and water dreaming at Kalipinypa. The print tells the story of an important rain making ceremony involving the rainmakers to invoke storms. Kalipinypa is a powerful storm that brings lightning, thunderclouds and rain to rejuvenate the earth, filling rock holes, clay pans and creeks. It has the power to create new life and growth upon the land. The dotting represents the rejuvenating effect the rain has had on the land, bringing out the bush food plants and providing easy access to water.It also reflects the sandhills in the area.
