The Elder women often paint this design in the ochre on the top half of their bodies for dancing, cultural meetings and ceremonies. The work is significant and traditional, with the barramundi scales painted in white against a black ochre background. The Barramundi Dreaming sites are secret places where the Kitja Women meet to discuss the Law, initiate the young women and pass their culture to the young ones. One if the favorite Ngarrangkarni (Dreamtime) stories is told by the young women that long time ago, the women were fishing for Barramundi with woven nets. One escaped from the net and flew right over the Kitja land, dropping its scales to make the diamonds in the area. It is believed that the Tradition of the Barramundi Dreaming is far deeper than this story. http://www.aboriginalartcoop.com.au/aboriginal-art/phyllis-thomas/body-paint-daiwal.php http://www.aboriginalartcoop.com.au/aboriginal-art/phyllis-thomas/body-paint-daiwal.php Phyllis Thomas ochres to dust Tue, 16 Jun 2009 16:45:21 +0930 http://www.aboriginalartcoop.com.au/aboriginal-art/nangala-yinarupa/untitled-21.php http://www.aboriginalartcoop.com.au/aboriginal-art/nangala-yinarupa/untitled-21.php Nangala Yinarupa ochres to dust Tue, 16 Jun 2009 16:45:05 +0930 http://www.aboriginalartcoop.com.au/aboriginal-art/sammy-buttler/untitled-20.php http://www.aboriginalartcoop.com.au/aboriginal-art/sammy-buttler/untitled-20.php Sammy Buttler ochres to dust Tue, 16 Jun 2009 16:40:20 +0930
