Walala Tjapaltjarri uses a visually minimal painting style to represent aspects of the sacred Tingari Cycle; an epic journey of Tingari Ancestors during the Tjukurrpa (Creation Era). He paints aspects of the Tingari Cycle that are associated with the artist's many sacred sites, such as Wilkinkarra, Maruwa, Tarrku, Njami and Yarrawangu. These are locations of significant rockholes, sandhills, sacred mountains and water soakages in the Gibson Desert.
