This painting is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Papunya Tula Artists that states: ‘This painting depicts designs associated with Tjiparitjarra, a site with a large hill, a series of shallow rockholes and soakage waters, west of the Kiwirrkurra in Western Australia. The zigzag motifs represent the tracks of Tingari Men as they travelled through the country as well as the water designs that were painted onto men’s bodies for ceremonial purposes. The men later travelled east to Tarkul and Wilkinkarra (Lake Mackay).’
