Graham Gordon Tjupurulla Wilkinkarra 2004
Acrylic on canvas 1200 x 800mm SOLD
Graham has painted the country of his grandfather, Tjumpo Tjapanangka. This country is located south of Balgo in
the Great Sandy Desert and centred around the vast salt lake named Wilkinkarra (Lake McKay). The country here is
dominated by tali (sandhills) while the central circle is a tjurrnu (soakwater) which was created by a snake during
the Tjukurrpa (Dreaming).
