Artwork Description

The women of the Tingarri (dreaming) are travelling to Kintore. They are at the place in the country of Kulkurda, where there are three rock holes. They are now a sacred women's site. The design represents the sandhills, creeks and rock holes used in the traditional way in women's ceremonial sand drawings and body painting. The colours are distanctive of the ceremonial style of the Western Desert region.

This painting needs to be framed. It’s also being sent direct from the artist at a remote art centre, Tjarlirli Art, in the top end. Please note there is only one mail plane a week that picks up the artworks. The tracking information is then received a week later when the mail plane returns so often the paintings are delivered before we receive the tracking information. Please expect a slightly longer wait for this very special artwork to arrive.
