This beautiful painting is by Indigenous Artist Noretta Nakamarra Nolan and is about Marapinti a rock hole west of Kiwirrkurra. Kiwirrkurra is a small community in Western Australia in the Gibson Desert, 1,200 kilometres east of Port Hedland and 700 kilometres west of Alice Springs.
Where the country is flat, the Marapinti Jukurrpa tell the story of young women of all skin groups travelling between rockholes and the easternmost point on the Seven Sisters’ journey across Martu Country.The women travelled without men and they went to Milmilpa and Yaka Yaka east of Malpurri. As they journey through the landscape, singing and dancing towards Pintupi Country, the Minyipuru created waters and landforms. On reaching Marapinti, they pierced their noses, a practice known as marapinti. Today the Minyipuru can be seen there as a group of rocks, sitting up like women.
