Namarrkon is an important creation ancestor who is responsible for the violent lightning storms that occur every tropical summer. The band running from Namarrkon’s left ankle to his hands and head and down to his right ankle represents the lightning he creates. He uses the axes on his head, elbows and feet to split the dark clouds and make lightning and thunder. Namarrkon’s story in this area is part of a larger story. It covers his journey from the coastline of the Coburg Peninsula to a rock shelter in the sandstone country of the Arnhem Land plateau, where he remains today. During his travels, Namarrkon left his power behind at many places. On Namarrkon’s last journey, he approached the Arnhem Land escarpment from the east and looked over the sheer wall. He took out an eye and placed it high on the cliff at Namarrkondjahdjam (Lightning Dreaming), where it sits waiting for the storm season. Lightning Dreaming can be seen from Kunwarddehwardde lookout on the Burrungkuy (Nourlangie) main gallery and shelter walk. During the buildup to the tropical summer, Kakadu is visited by huge numbers of Namarrkon’s children the alyurr, or Leichhardt’s Grasshopper. Feeding on the pityrodia plant, the alyurr call to their father, who answers with powerful storms and lightning displays. Information https://parksaustralia.gov.au/kak/discover/culture/stories/

17.01.2022 Meet Rayne, he has painted this original artwork especially for the Spectacular in response to the music and themes of the Aboriginal segment and, in a Spectacu...lar first, it will be enlarged and spread across the 2,700 voice choir whilst the 250 strong Aboriginal Dance Ensemble perform on the floor - incredible! He is mentored by his grandfather, Mick. Rayne's work is already renowned at local galleries but this spectacular opportunity brings him one step closer to his dream "to show and share my passion for Indigenous art and culture with the world. Well done Rayne! We can't wait to hear more of your story and see your work in Spec 18!
