This painting depicts Nola experimenting in a new medium and new tjukurrpa. Usually only painting the stories of Mina Mina, Tika Tika and Yunpalara, Nola here has branched off into an experimental zone. Depicted in this work is a tjanpi man, a tree and grasses.

Ngikin Ngikin is an unusual Tjukurrpa story that Nola paints. It depicts quiet and shy dreamtime figures that are the height of grass. They have stringy like qualities and live in families on the other side of Patjarr between two rock-holes. They are nervous people that only come out in the afternoons and make a sound like spears in the wind. Sometimes they fight with each other and they live in wiltja’s.
