Goanna Dreaming

Story

Two white goannas move across a deep red ground, flanked by red and black cross shapes and bands of geometric pattern. The design repeats in tight clusters of dots, giving the surface a dense, textured rhythm. The piece is made in unidentified paint on paper, dated 1973. Its creator, Kaapa Tjampitjinpa (1925–1989), was an Australian First Nation painter from Australia.
