ENQUIRE
Patju Presley paints with such spiritual confidence, as someone who knows their place in the Creation, often singing the associated songs of particular sites whilst rhythmically placing his myriad of dots to form his striking compositions. Here he depicts the significant sites of Tjari and Katapatja. He also mentions the site of Pakupiti. These sites skirt and significant women's place between the communites of Utju and Pukatja. As this is a women's place Patju does not divulge many details of this site and only represents what is public.
"Minymaku Tjukurpa, wati wiya ngangatja". This is a a women's creation line, there are no men allowed at that place.
