About Minyma Kutjarra
This painting depicts an important story about Minyma Kutjarra and their husband Ngirntaka Wati. The two ladies stopped at Tjutjuranyara rockhole (Circus Waters). They were collecting kampurarrpa and singing. They travelled around country and through Irriya. They were calling for their husband everywhere but couldn't find him anywhere. They didn't know that the Parrot men had killed and were eating him! When they found the parrot men, they saw their husband's tail. The Parrot men then threw them some of the meat. The two women cried for their husband. They are finished now, perhaps they have been transformed into something?
