Tingari Cycle by Walala Tjapaltjarri

Central Art is proud to present an exhibition of the collective works by the three Western Desert artists; Thomas, Walala and Warlimpirrnga Tjapaltjarri. The Tjapaltjarri brothers were hailed as ‘the Last nomads’ in the international press when they and six of their relatives left their nomadic life in October 1984 and made contact with their Pintupi relatives at Kiwirrkurra for the first time in over twenty years. This was to be their first contact with the Western world.

This spectacular Tingari Cycle depicts the journey path the Tingari ancestors travelled, creating and shaping sacred ceremonial sites.
