Size/Medium : 813 x 305mm: acrylic on canvas Painting

Dulcie has painted Karlyapilyirra a lake close to Pipaar, south of Balgo in the Great Sandy Desert. The fine dotting indicates the salt from the lake, surrounded by sandhills that shift with the seasons. There are sacred rocks that surround the site, which have a strong tjukurrpa story. Here, Dulcie tells of her country, its heritage and its life giving gifts
