Zakius Jack's design on this fabric depicts Wilkinkarra - Lake Mackay, his father's Country and Tjukurrpa. The story tells of a great bushfire coming from the east, turning the land into a lake. The circles represent waterholes scattered across the Country, and the lines between them are the tracks of animals looking for water. Zakius was born near Papunya in 1970, the son of Ikuntji founding member Eunice Napanangka Jack and Gideon Tjupurrula Jack, who was born at Wilkinkarra. His grandfather was Papunya Tula founding member Tutuma Jack. Zakius is represented in galleries in Australia and France.
Father walked from lake to Hermannsburg long time ago, he was a stockman. From there, he went to Papunya.
