"This painting depicts designs associated with the site of Kirripin, west of the Kiwirrkura community. There is a large rocky hill at this site that contains many caves and rockholes.
In mythological times a group of Tingari men visited this site on their travels east. One of the larger caves at Kirripin was used by the Tingari men to store their spears. The cave still remains a very important place and is still used for hiding spears."- Papunya Tula Artists
