Bamboo Men's Shirt Aboriginal Art Lukarrara Jukurrpa
PAINTING STORY
Lukarrara Jukurrpa (Desert Fringe-rush Seed Dreaming)
This Jukurrpa belongs to women of the
Nakamarra/Napurrurla subsections and to
Jakamarra/Jupurrurla men. This Dreaming is associated
with a place called Jaralypari, north of Yuendumu. Lukarrara
(desert fringe-rush [Fimbristylis oxystachya & Fimbristylis
eremophila]) is a grass with an edible seed. The seeds are
traditonally ground on a large stone (‘ngatinyanu’) with a
smaller stone (‘ngalikirri’) to make flour. This flour is mixed
with water (‘ngapa’) to make damper cakes which are
cooked and eaten. In Warlpiri traditional paintings
iconography is used to represent the Jukurrpa, particular
sites and other elements. Large concentric circles often
represent the site of Jaralypari and also the seed bearing
grass Lukurrara. ‘U’ shapes can depict the Karnta (women)
collecting ‘lukarrara’ and straight lines are frequently used
to portray seeds that fall down to the ground and are also
collected by women using their ‘parrajas’ (wooden food
carriers) and ‘karlangu’ (digging sticks).

Perfect shirt for any sunny occasion! Light weight, great colour and design...great vibes!!
Love the stories behind the art work and the fabric washes really well will definitely buy more
Vibrant new fresh colours, cool, refreshing and the comments leave me in awe. I have recommended your products to all my friends and since 2022 when I first purchased shorts and shirts from your outlet in Broome I have been more than happy.
Where do I start. I m very impressed with the shirts and in the climate where I am is exceptional. Very cool, vibrant and a good fit, I love the new styles available each year and it's a good fit. I first came to your shop in 2022 and the advice received was above reproach. Thank you
This design and pattern stood out for me, and the colouring suited me too - so I was told. I am now dressed ready for Christmas! I chose the shirt from your online catalogue which is excellent and easy to use.
