This mimpu sculpture is reminiscent of a traditional deep wooden vessel designed especially for transporting water. It usually carved from a knot or scar on the trunk of a desert bloodwood or a curved root section of the river red gum tree.
Desert Mob is presented annually in Mparntwe | Alice Springs on Arrernte Country.
