Urban Road Yankirri Jukurrpa II Canvas Art Print

Yankirri Jukurrpa II Canvas Art Print - A bold and bright multicolour palette of vibrant blue, yellow, red and orange combines beautifully with the overlapping curves and shapes of this Indigenous Aboriginal artwork piece, made up of thousands of meticulously placed dots. Urban Road is committed to investing a stream of ongoing financial support back into the Yuendumu and Nyirripi artist community. For every Yankirri Jukurrpa II artwork sold, a percentage of the sale price goes directly back to the artist. This Indigenous Aboriginal artwork depicts the emu Dreaming, the site of which is at Ngarlikurlangu - north of Yuendumu in the Northern Territory. This Dreaming follows the 'yankirri' (emu) on their journey to find water, travelling to the rockhole at Ngarlikurlangu. Once they reached the rockhole, one of the yankirri ancestors - represented in the artwork by 'wirliya' (footprints) - enters into a fight with a Wardilyka (Australian bustard), neither wanting to share the 'yakajirri' (bush raisin) they discovered in the area. This Dreaming belongs to the Jangala men and Nangala women, and is also represented by a traditional Warlpiri dance, performed during initiation ceremonies. In contemporary Warlpiri paintings traditional iconography is used to represent the Jukurrpa, associated sites and other elements. Emus are usually represented by their 'wirliya' (footprints), arrow-like shapes that show them walking around Ngarlikurlangu eating 'yakajirri' (bush raisin). Be inspired by uniquely breathtaking Indigenous Aboriginal Art and vibrant retellings of the Dreamtime, and bring this stunning artwork into your home today.

While we strive for accuracy, slight variations may occur. For any concerns, contact our customer support. Your satisfaction is our priority. STRETCHED CANVAS Urban Road's stretched canvas fine art prints are professionally printed on polycotton artist canvas, using archival inks and then stretched and gallery wrapped. This means the image is stretched around a 38mm frame to create a seamless, museum-quality finish. All stretched and box framed art prints arrive ready to hang. SHADOW BOX FRAMES We also offer the option to add a shadow box frame to your Urban Road canvas art print. A little different from a traditional framed print, the canvas sits within the box frame with a 5mm gap, creating a sophisticated shadow effect between the frame and the canvas. Our solid timber box frame mouldings are 10mm wide, and 55mm deep, and add approximately 40mm to the length and height of the listed canvas size. ROLLED CANVAS ART At Urban Road, we also offer you the option to purchase your canvas art print unframed to allow you to have it framed your own way. As with our stretched and box framed canvas products, our rolled canvas prints are professionally printed on durable, museum-quality, matte coated polycotton canvas and made to order. Our rolled canvas products are printed to the listed stretched size, and come with an additional 45mm mirrored edge plus another 60mm white border to allow for gallery wrapping.
