One of the most eminent painters from Kintore (Papunya region), Ronnie shows great attachment to this region, from which his tribe had been dispossessed.

Here, he depicts the sacred site of Walungurru (Kintore), where a Varan Ancestor came to rest during the mythical Dreamtime. This legend is part of the Tingari cycle: the Tingari, ancestral figures, moved across the Australian continent, creating sites and ceremonies.

Their journeys are described in numerous songs that are still used today for initiation. The vibrations created by the interlocking shapes on the canvas tend to symbolize the perpetual movement of the Tingari and the dances dedicated to them during ceremonies.
