The artwork of Barney Campbell Tjakamarra possess a wonderful subtlety, characterised by series of roundels that seem to float in a maze of sinuous lines. Such iconography is reminiscent of ceremonial body designs and traditional ground drawings. The most common subject depicted in Barney’s paintings is that of the Tingari Cycle. Since events associated with the Tingari Cycle are of a secret and sacred nature few details are given. These legends form part of the teachings of the post-initiatory youths today, as well as providing explanations for contemporary customs.

Julie depicts her Ngapa Jukurrpa (Water Dreaming), which is associated with her father’s traditional country of Pirlinyanu, a rocky outcrop in the Tanami Desert, west of Yuendumu and towards the WA border. Using an aerial perspective along with a more recently established and distinctive monochromatic palette, Julie’s paintings have become works of extraordinary optical brilliance as she alternates the size of dots throughout her work as well as building up specific shapes or reference points often by repeated overdotting.

Waldron’s traditional country is Queensland’s Gulf Region. His works record impressions of contemporary life and artistic expressions, of the significance of traditional place, using abstracted topography. His works show an interesting example of combining styles, with tonal and textural variations, overlaid with strands of fine lines and chalky stokes, a mastery of the elegant execution of abstract minimalism. The gentle curves and meandering lines in the Yellowwood, Bush Apple and Duck Creek reflect an unselfconscious freedom of movement.
