Debra paints the ‘Two
Women Dreaming’ story that her grandfather, Shorty Lungkata Tjungarayyi, passed down to her. In the ancient Creation
era, the Dreaming, two women were walking in their country around Warlungurru (Kintore),
and were tracking a perentie lizard for some time. When they speared the giant
lizard with a digging stick, it created a soakage site at Lampintjanya, near
the hills of Kintore Range. The two women then travelled through Kultukatjarra
(Docker River) to Illiningarrara and eventually Tjukurla.
