'Gelingkenayin' by Mabel Juli 120 x 120cm / Natural ochre and pigment on canvas. www.artinterface.net for more information and pricing. The image Juli has painted represents one of the key Dreaming (Creation) stories for Warlu country and is explains a particular rock formation found in a valley. This country is known for its hilly terrain and abundance of waterholes and natural springs. In the Dreamtime (Ngarrangkarni), Gelingkenayin, the rainbow, was a man. He was traveling through Warlu country hunting for kangaroo with his dingo. His dog was good and loyal. Each time he would send out his dog, the dog would track and kill the kangaroo and return to his master then lead him to the kangaroo. Gelingkenayin came to a deep valley with step hills on each side. He sent out his dingo and the dog ran up one side of the hill and was gone a long while. Gelingkenayin called out to his dog but there was no answer. He walked down the hill back into the valley and called for his dog again, still nothing. Dejected and upset, Gelingkenayin walked back down to the valley and sat quietly. As night started to fall and daylight slipped from the valley, Gelingkenayin heard a deep growl from behind him. Gelingkenayin turned his head to where the noise came from and as he turned, his shape became stone. You can still see Gelingkenayin in that valley today. The rocky hill in the middle of the Warlu valley is recognized as Gelingkenayin's profile.
