This painting is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Papunya Tula Artists that states: ‘This painting depicts designs associated with Tjungimanta, a site with several soakage waters just to the north east of the Kiwirrkura community. In mythological times a large group of Tingari Men came from the west and passed through this site during their travels to Lake Mackay.’
