Title: Rainbow Valley
ID: 0601405
Medium: Watercolour on Artist Board
Size: 49 x 37 cm
Artist: Peter Taylor Tjutjatja
The painting features Rainbow Valley (central Australia), a conservation reserve which consists of spectacular red sandstone bluffs and cliffs. These free standing cliffs form part of the James Range, and are particularly attractive in the early morning and late afternoon when rainbow-like bands of differently coloured rock are highlighted. These bands in the sandstone cliffs are caused by water.
Rainbow Valley displays ancient Aboriginal artefacts and rock art on its sandstone walls and in caves, which has cultural significance to the southern Arrernte Aboriginal people. Rainbow Valley is a special place for the artist; he feels at peace with himself.
The southern Arrernte Aboriginal people call the Rainbow Valley cliffs Wurre.
