Yankirri Jukurrpa (Emu Dreaming) - Ngarlikirlangu by Ricardo Jampijinpa Gallagher

This painting depicts a 'yankirri Jukurrpa' (emu [Dromaius novaehollandiae] Dreaming) from a place called Ngarlikurlangu, approximately 50kms north of Yuendumu. The 'kirda' (owners) of this Dreaming are Nangala/Nampijinpa women and Jangala/Jampijinpa men.

This Jukurrpa tells the story of a 'yankirri' (emu) and a 'wardilyka' (bush turkey [Ardeotis Australis]). 'Yankirri' lived at a soakage to the west called Warnirripanu (or Walangkamirirri), while 'wardilyka' lived at a soakage to the east called Parirri.
The emu and bush turkey used to go around the country picking 'yakajirri' (bush raisins [Solanum centrale]) and mashing them into 'kapurdu' (fruit balls) to save in their nests for later. However, they were jealous of each other - the emu thought that the bush turkey was picking the best and juiciest 'yakajirri', and was leaving him with only the sour 'yakajirri'.
