Love Story at Ngarlu
ASAACPT01
1992 (painted at Warrandyte)
Synthetic polymer paint on linen
122x152.5cm
Description:In this version of the Love Story at Ngarlu the night time camps of Nungurrayi women are shown, they are singing powerful love songs in an attempt to reverse the spell. Multiple varieties of fresh bush food are illustrated.The women’s reasts are painted for ceremony. The Napangardi woman approaches as a mirage. In his excitment, Liltipiliti drops the hair string and the ends blow away in the breeze. At this site they make love.
Normally the background design for this dreaming was done using unbroken lines. It was very unusual for Clifford to use dotted lines.
