John Mosquito Tjapangardi Wanirrikitja 1991 Acrylic on canvas 500 x 750mm SOLD
Artist's Country. There are 2 waterholes in these parts and many ephemeral claypans nearby. All of these are
associated with the travels in the Dreamtime of Tingarri beings who left these marks in the landscape. The songs
and dances for this country are looked after by the artist and other senior men. He has shown the green grass
surrounding the claypans following good rains. This brings in game which the men hunt. The artist was born about
1921 and passed away in 2004.
