Bernard Tjalkuri, Kalaya Tjukurpa - 2010 Synthetic polymer paint on linen
This is Kalaya Tjukurpa (Emu Creation Story). The emus started travelling near Kanpi and they made a camp nearby. The other kalaya are living at Kurukupanya and walk out then come back. This is their main home. At each place they stopped they would perform inma (sacred dancing and singing). As they travelled south towards Watarru they created many landmarks, which you can see in the country today. They ended up close to Watarru. © Tjungu Palya Arts and Alcaston Gallery, 2011found at alcastongallery.com.au

Tjunkaya Tapaya, Tjitjiku Tjukurpa - 2011, Synthetic polymer paint on canvas
A scene from the Kutungu tjukurpa. This story takes place in the country north of Uluru. Kutungu is a woman about which many stories are told. In this particular part of the tale, Kutungu, now the mother of many children, is travelling with them on a long journey by foot. On the way she has gathered vast amounts of the bush foods, particularly ‘kampurarpa’ (bush tomatoes), and is carrying them in her ‘piti’ on her head. The children become very homesick on this journey far from familiar places and refuse to continue on. Kutungu again and again asks that they come with her, but eventually they sit down and won’t budge. She leaves the bush foods with them and continues on alone.© Ernabella Arts Inc. & Alcaston Gallery, 2012

Tjunkaya Tapaya, Kungkarangkalpa Attila - 2011 Synthetic polymer paint on canvas Synthetic polymer paint on canvas
Kungkarangkalpa means the Seven Sisters, which is an extensive creation story relating to the Pleiades constellation. The story traverses Australia taking different forms, but local women are privy to the part of the story which takes place in the country near Ernabella. This part takes place near Mt Connor also called Attila, which is a flat topped mountain between Ernabella and Uluru.
The sisters are swimming in this place called Witabulla when the man chasing them called Nyiru sneaks up on them and nearly catches them. Quickly they dive under the water and swim underground. They come up near old Mulga Park and travel on to Cave Hill. The man follows.
