Rockholes at Ungarla, 2001 by Dr George Tjapaltjarri 61x31cm Cat 6483DG

Rockholes at Ungarla, 2001 is an important site for Malliera ceremonies for post-initiatory youths.

As a highly initiated and respected ngankari (traditional healer) Dr George's paintings are often of a secret sacred nature and very little details are given.

However, stories of his healing powers are well known within both traditional people and the medical doctors at the time when the desert peoples made contact in the sixties.
