Explication d’une œuvre :

Ngura Piltia. the country is very dry, 'ukuri wiya' - no green grass and 'mina wiya' - no water. Kamula (camels), Rabitah (rabbits), Malu (kangaroo), Donkeys, all the animals went to the waterhole looking for water, but there was none so they went away again. Tjukutji underground soak in the creek, there was a little water. The family went for dog skins, trapping, near Tjilpil and Alukumpa.

Matjangka was little girl, running around 'nikiti', no clothes. There was a big drought, there is no rain
coming.
