In this painting, Glorine depicts
Janmarra Jukurrpa - Bush Onion Dreaming. One of the main sites for this
Jukurrpa is Purrupurru, near Wakurlpa outstation where Glorine was raised. Janmarra are the small
bulbs that grow in the soft, sandy soil in the banks of creek beds. It is a totemic
plant, featured in song and ceremony, often relating to ‘women’s business’ as
knowledge about the collection and preparation of Janmarra is customarily passed
down from older women to the younger generations.
