Catalogue text

This work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tjungu Palya which states: ‘This Kampurarpa Piti in Western Australia. The women are out collecting kampurarpa (desert raisins). There are many sand dunes in this country. When I was a child I travelled around her with Brown family. My parents passed away when I was young and Anmanari and her husband looked after me. There are footprints from the dingo who was walking through the country.’
