This painting depicts designs associated with a swamp site south of Marawa, slightly west of Wilkinkarra (Lake Mackay). During ancestral times a large group of Tingari men travelled to Marawa from the west, and after arriving at the site, passed beneath the earth’s surface and continued travelling underground. It is also said that a huge ancestral snake sleeps in this swamp. Since events associated with the Tingari Cycle are of a secret nature no further detail was given.

100% silk satin with cotton padding and silk lining.
