Tiger Palpatja’s paintings narrate his Tjukurpa, the creation story of Piltati. Embedded in the land is a story of an escalating conflict between wati kutjara (two brothers) and their wives, minyma kutjara (two sisters). Every day the women would go hunting while their husbands performed inma (ceremonies). One day the wives decided to eat all the food they had gathered rather than share it and in a fit of rage, their husbands transformed themselves into wanampi (giant water serpents) and travelled beneath the ground. In search of the wnaampi, the wives dug furiously into the ground, creating the rocky gorge at Piltati.
