Bark painting

This painting depicts a secred site at "Kurrurldul", an outstation of Maningrida.

The "rarrk" or abstract crosshatching, on this work represents the design for the crow totem ancestor called 'Djimarr'.  today this being exists in the form of a rock, which is permanently submerged at the bottom of Kurrurldul Creek.  The 'Djimarr' rock in the stream at Kurrurldul is said to move around and call out in a soft hooting tone at night.  Both the stone itself and the area around it are considered sacred.
