'Pamapardu' is the Warlpiri name for the flying ants or termites that build the large anthills found throughout Warlpiri country. This country belongs to Nakamarra\/Napurrurla women and Jakamarra\/Jupurrurla men. 'Pamapardu' are flying ants. They build earth mounds (‘mingkirri’) that are common in the Tanami area. When heavy rains come in summer the ‘mingkirri’ get flooded out, so the ‘pamapardu’ grow wings and fly off to make new homes, following their queens to dry mounds or to build a new. When they have found their new home they drop their wings. In this stage they can be collected, lightly cooked in coals and eaten. As they fall to the ground women collect them to eat because they are nice and sweet. In contemporary Warlpiri paintings traditional iconography is used to represent the Jukurrpa, particular sites and other elements. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs original artworks, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eeach painting is completely unique\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, making it a beautiful piece of Australian art to display in your home or give as a meaningful gift.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e13cm x q3xm pre-stretched \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/indigenousartcode.org\/img\/membershipimport\/b65006ad-9e2c-4dd9-b8ee-b4185d86fad3\/2920-warlukurlangu-logo.jpg?fm=pnj\u0026amp;q=80\u0026amp;fit=max\u0026amp;crop=1874%2C1874%2C606%2C598\" alt=\"Warlukurlangu Artists - Dealer Member of Indigenous Art Code | Indigenous Art Code Member\" width=\"188\" height=\"188\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WARLU","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":66839979130995,"sku":null,"price":65.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/5434\/5843\/files\/Copyofnewlargewebsiteimage_2.png?v=1791707097","url":"https:\/\/kakaduplumco.com\/products\/pamapardu-jukurrpa-flying-ant-dreaming-warntungurru-by-kara-napangardi-ross","provider":"Kakadu Plum Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
