(C) 2000 www.aboriginal-art.de Aboriginal Art Galerie Bähr; Tony Tjakamarra, Australien; Ohne Titel (No. 24)
Untitled, 1996
Acrylic on linen, 90,5 x 89,5 cm

This painting depicts designs associated with the Water Dreaming at Nyuntjin. This is a soakage water site with much tall grass growing around the soak and many poisonous water snakes living in the grass. During the tjukurrpa two men travelled from this site to the west. During their travels they passed through Kiwirrkura. (Copyright of image remains by Aboriginal Artists Agency Ltd, PO Box 282, Cammeray, NSW 2062, Australia)

Untitled, 1996
Acrylic on linen, 90,5 x 90 cm

This painting depicts designs associated with the Water Snake Dreaming at the rockhole site of Nyintjulngu on the north side of Lake Mackay. The snake lives underneath the salt lake at the site. During the jukurrpa a large group of men camped at Nyintjulngu before continuing their travels further west. A man of the Tjupurrula kinship subsection came from the north-east, carrying water on his head, and entered a cave at the site. He found the group of men camping there, however, so kept to himself.

Untitled, 1998
Acrylic on linen, 55 x 61 cm

This painting depicts designs associated with the Water Dreaming at the rockhole site of Nguntjun, north of Lake Mackay. During the tjukurrpa a large group of Tingari men came to this site from the east. After camping at Nguntjun they continued their travels further west carrying water in pitis (coolamons) on their heads. Since events associated with the Tingari Cycle are of a secret nature no further detail was given.
