This beautifully crafted cotton throw features licensed artwork by Judy Napangardi Watson, depicting Mina Mina Jukurrpa (Mina Mina Dreaming)—a sacred site located far west of Yuendumu in the Northern Territory. In Warlpiri culture, Jukurrpa (commonly translated as "Dreaming" or "Dreamtime") refers to the creation stories that connect people, land, and law. Mina Mina is particularly significant to women with the skin names Napangardi and Napanangka, who are the cultural custodians of this story. The artwork tells of ancestral women who travelled east from Mina Mina, gathering bush food and performing ceremonies that shaped the landscape. Soft, breathable, and generously sized, this cotton throw brings warmth and meaning into any space. Royalties from each purchase go to the artist, supporting her work and community. Dimensions: 49" x 59" Royalties directly benefit the artist. About the Artist: Judy Napangardi Watson (c. 1935–2016) was a leading Warlpiri artist born at Yarungkanji, Mt. Doreen Station in the Northern Territory. Growing up in a traditional nomadic lifestyle, she spent long periods with her family on ancestral lands at Mina Mina and Yingipurlangu, places of deep cultural significance. Taught by her elder sister, acclaimed artist Maggie Napangardi Watson, Judy developed her own vibrant and energetic style, known for its dynamic "dragged dotting" technique. Her works predominantly depict the Jukurrpa (Dreaming) associated with Mina Mina, including powerful women's stories and sacred ceremonial sites. Active since the early 1990s, her art is held in major collections across Australia and internationally. Judy’s work is celebrated for its bold abstraction, deep cultural meaning, and her lifelong commitment to sharing Warlpiri culture through painting.
