Ngayuku ngura means ‘my place’. Samuel uses an extensive palette of colours to paint the country surrounding Kalka and Pipalyatjara. His paintings feature the various land formations from that area – rock holes, creeks and hills. His land is a sacred men’s rock hole, so sacred that the name is not allowed to be written down or spoken about.
