Travels of the Mala 1976On its travels in the Dreaming, the Mala (Hare Wallaby) ancestor passed through a wide area of Central Australia. The painting shows the tracks of this fast-moving wallaby, indicating where it browsed (represented by a dragging tail mark) or made speedy progress. The circles are the spinifex grass tussocks under which it lives, and the arc-shaped protrusions are the Mala’s whiskers. |
