Damien and Nyinkalya Marks
Currently Unavailable.
This design is from an original painting of Damien’s country, Mt. Liebig, west of Papunya. Damien’s great grandfather and his family are travelling through the desert towards Kintore, collecting food. In the bottom right hand corner the sun is setting over a hillside. The family stops to camp at different places along the way. The red concentric circles are dry rockholes, and the blue and white concentric circles represent rockholes that are filled with clean water, that flows on into the creek. The red stripes coming out of the centre of the right hand side of the painting lead to one of these waterholes – these are the tracks of the family walking through the sand. In this painting you can also see spinifex bushes (the yellow star-like symbols), and dry claypans with cracks in the earth.

This gorgeous, quality handknotted Tibetan Carpet is made by the Tibetan community in exile. Rama's design taken from his original painting is about the Tjukurrpa of his birthplace - laced with stories of the ancestral beings who created the landmarks and played vital roles in the law giving stories. Ngayuku ngura means My Place and is used by Anangu to refer to the place where their bodies first touched the ground.

This rug design is based on an original painting called Piltati Tjukurpa.
This is a tjukurpa (creation) story from up near Amata. There were two brothers who married two sisters. The sisters are in the top left and right corners of the painting. They are digging for bushtucker near some rockholes. The lines between the holes are where the ladies have been digging – tjawani. The sisters did not come home for a long time, and the brothers said ‘lets go and change into water serpents.’ After all their digging, the sisters are thirsty and get up to go into the water, and the brothers are there, they’re waiting. When the sisters drink the water, the brothers rise up out of the rockhole as water serpents and swallow their wives.

Puurda manu Wanakiji Jukurrpa (Yam and Bush Tomato Dreaming)
This image shows the Yam and Bush Tomato Dreamings. You can see the Yams and the small round berries of the Bush Tomatoes. The place associated with this Dreaming is west of Yuendumu. In the Dreamtine the people used to eat these fruits and vegetables, just as our old people lived off them. What I have painted here is the Dreamtime Yams and Bush Tomatoes. I painted them here for the children to see.
