This painting is two stories, the Watarru Wanampi Tjurkurpa, and the Malilu Tjurkurpa. These stories are about neighbouring countries, and the friends Imitjala Pollard and Marita Baker painted each of their stories together.The Watarru Wanampi Tjurkurpa, painted by Imitjala Pollard, is the story of the Wanampi (large creation snake) that travels around Watarru, he's still there.
