Jilamara 'Inlet'

$0.00

Jilamara by Jean Baptiste Apuatimi is from our Tiwi Collection. Jilamara is a Tiwi word that refers to the ochre patterning traditionally painted on the bodies of dancers and on carved poles during Pukumani ceremonies. Jilamara is unique to the art and culture of Tiwi Islanders.

"All my paintings are ceremony, same like this one. We Tiwi paint our bodies with ochre for ceremony. This is our body painting design. This is olden days painting. Long ago in the early days we put yalinga (red ochre), arrikininga (yellow ochre) and tutuyangini (white ochre) on our face and body for Pukumani (funeral) and Kulama (Yam) ceremonies.  The bars going across are the Jilamara (body painting) we put across our stomach and chest. Sometimes we still do this. My husband taught me this style, he used to tell me story about that painting."
