Ilyarnayt

Lucky Morton Kngwarreye

$295.00

All of Lucky’s Dreamtime stories belong to her countries Ngkwarlerlanem and Arnkawenyerr. These paintings are inspired by the Dreamtime story of the Ilyarn or Ilyarnayt, a common variety of acacia. The delicate designs in these paintings represent the beautiful flower of this plant.

Bundles of golden yellow globular flowers bloom on this plant, nestled in between thick, leathery leaves. This plant is particularly favourable for the abundance of edible grubs living in the roots, known simply as Ilyarnayt.
