This work is accompanied by a certificate from Short St. Gallery which states: ‘Daniel’s painting reflects the complex desert landscape full of life and colour. He depicts salt lakes (white areas) and the talis (sand hills). Kirriwirri is the birthplace of my father’s family it is the family home. “My father along with his older siblings spent their childhood and adolescents here. Kirriwirri is also important to many other family and clan groups because it is a living jila meaning it has water that never dries out even during the driest of seasons. I have never been to Kirriwirri but I have a deep desire with in to travel and see this country to become connected.”’
