A member of the Aboriginal community based in Alice Springs (in the heart of Australia's central deserts), Clifford Possum Tjapaltjarri quickly established himself as one of the most important representatives of contemporary Aboriginal painting through his highly original and energetic celebration of the Dreamtime. The Dreamtime corresponds to the time when the Great Ancestors emerged from the original magma and created the continent in their image, gave life to the tribes that still inhabit it today, and taught their members laws and customs, hunting and medicine, dance, song, and painting.
