Jilamara Design - This design is owned by Paulina Puruntatameri

During ceremony on the Tiwi Islands a series of 'yoi' (dances), are performed; some are totemic and show a narrative of newly composed songs. Participants in these ceremonies are painted with turtiyanginari (the different natural  ochre colours), transforming the dancers and, in some cases, provide protection against mapurtiti (spirits). These significant artistic designs collectively are called 'Jilamara'.
