This painting tells the story of a Jangala watiya-warnu (Acacia tenuissima) ancestor who travelled south from Ngurlupurranyangu to Yamunturrngu (Mount Liebig), gathering seed-bearing watiya-warnu and carrying them in parrajas (food carriers).
The seeds were traditionally collected in spinifex and mulga country, processed at camp, and used for food and medicinal purposes, including treating stomach ailments. The Dreaming also includes ceremonial practices involving ground paintings.
Custodianship of this Jukurrpa belongs to Nampijinpa/Nangala women and Jampijinpa/Jangala men.
In Warlpiri art, traditional symbols represent the story: U-shapes for women collecting seeds, oval forms for food carriers, and straight lines for digging sticks.

Customer Reviews
Mainie is a brand I proudly wear for so many reasons. I love that each scarf has a story and that I know with each piece funds go back to the woman that designed it. I adore the vibrancy of the colours and the high quality, I have had my scarves for many years now and they are so versatile from wearing them to do presentations or going out for lunch. I stand for empowering women and standing proud in your individuality and Mainie embodies this in every way.

Our Mainie scarves have become an essential wardrobe component both at home and when travelling. They serve to elevate any outfit whilst also celebrating Australian First Nations culture with dignity and sophistication. The silk product is beautiful to wear and the merino wool is unbelievable soft and so warm. Lightweight, easy to pack and always commented on.

I love the Mainie Scarves, for myself and as the perfect gift. They are investment pieces that will be part of your wardrobe for life. I love travel and one or two scarves are always included in my luggage. They are perfect on the plane and for dressing up outfits. I take a Merino scarf for cooler climates and silk ones everywhere else. However, the very best part is the ethical basis of the brand. I know I support a woman artist from a First Nations community when I purchase something from Mainie. They look good and do good at the same time.
