Wippitja at Kings Canyon (2007) by Vincent Forrester Muntjantji, 122x122cm Cat 13088VF

After the rain, water flows from the South-East into a clay-pan below the Kings Canyon escarpment. The wippitja (a kind of possum) leaves footprints in the soft mud that can easily be seen from the air.

Prized ceremonial ochre that comes from a mountain called Karrku is used to depict the footprints. Vincent's aunties are the custodial owners who have the right to collect this ochre.
