Description
This painting depicts the rock hole site Marrapinta, west of Kiwirkuura in Western Australia. This is the place where a number of older women come together to perform certain ceremonies and pass them on to their successors. During their stay they collect edible berries 'kampurarrpa' and grind them into food. The women come to this special place from different directions. What exactly happens during these ceremonies is secret.
Please noted that all Aboriginal Art is created from a so called ‘Birds Eye’ view. This means that the paintings can be hung either horizontally as well as vertically.
SmithDavidson Gallery represents a wide range of Australian Aboriginal Art, please contact for additional information.
