"The Wati Kutjara are two young lizard men who, in the Dreaming, travelled all over the Western Desert. In english, their songtime is often called the Two Men Dreaming. The Wati Kutjara are ubiquitous in the mythology of the Western Desert; Indeed, their journey extends for thousands of kilometres, stretching from the Kimberley to South Australia" - Art Yarramuna
