George's painting represents sacred sites in his ancestral country in the Western Australian desert.
The Tingari are a group of mythical beings who traversed the land creating geographical sites and performing ritual.
These sites, associated with the Tingari cycle are situated along the early journey paths of the Tingari Ancestors which were created throughout the ’Tjukurrpa’ or dreamtime.
Their journeys and what occurred during these travels are captured in ceremony.
The Tingari Men were usually followed by Tingari Women and accompanied by novices and their travels and adventures are enshrined in a number of song cycles.
These mythologies form part of the stories that are passed on to the younger Pintupi boys prior to initiation.
