Ngapa Jukurrpaby Kelly-Anne Nungarrayi Gibson
The site depicted in this painting is Pirlinyarnu (Mt. Farewell) about 165km west of Yuendumu. The story is about two Jangala men, rain makers, who sang the rain, unleashing a giant storm that collided with another storm from Wapurtali. The two storms travelled across the country from Karlipinpa. A Kirrkarlanji (Brown Falcon) carried the storm further west until it dropped the storm at Pirlinjarnu, forming an enormous lake. A water soakage exists in this place today. At Puyurru the bird dug up a Rainbow Serpent. The Serpent carried the water with it to create another large lake. Whenever it rains today hundreds of Ngapangarlpa (Bush Ducks) still flock to Pirlinyarnu. The custodians for this Dreaming are the Jangala/Jampijinpa men and the Nangala/Nampijinpa women.
