Artwork Story

Helicopter has painted some of his country located far to the south of Balgo. This country is centred around Jupiter Well where Helicopter was born and spent his formative years. The central feature of the painting are a number of water sources. These tjurrnu (soak water) are named from left to right Wangkartu, Ngakalpa and Karrulyar. They are places Helicopter would visit as a young man. The country here is dominated by tali (sand hills) as represented by the parallel lines in the painting.
