Jacqueline Phillipus Napurrula paints at the Papunya Tjupi Art Centre, located in Papunya, north west of Alice Springs. Established in 2007, Papunya Tjupi Arts is 100% Aboriginal owned and directed and currently consists of 150 artists from the Papunya region. Central to Papunya Tjupi is the understanding that painting is an important part of culture and connection to country, and that the teaching and passing of knowledge is what keeps the community’s future strong. Jacqueline paints the Kapi Tjukurrpa (Water Dreaming) from Kalipinypa, North-east of Kintore. Kalipinypa is Jacquie’s father’s country. The painting tells the story of the rain and hail making ceremony for the site of Kalipinypa. Ancestral forces are invoked to bring on a powerful storm with lightning, thunderclouds and rain sending a deluge to rejuvenate the earth, filling the rock holes, clay pans and creeks and creating new life and growth upon the land. Today the Nakamarra, Tjakamarra, Napurrula and Tjupurrula men and women are the custodians of this important Water Dreaming site and celebrate its stories in the ceremonies.
