Artwork Story
Ken’s etching depicts a story from his father’s country, Walpirnta, west of Tjukurla. There were important men travelling and camping through country on their way to business. ‘This is me and my father’s tjukurrpa (dreaming)’. This year I saw Walpirnta from a helicopter. It was the first time it made me really happy to see the place my father had told me about. This painting tells a very storng story, I can’t tell you anymore. © Warakurna Artists
