Kapi piti - Waterhole

 Willie Wilson

Story:  'Kapi piti - Waterhole' by Willie Wilson. Willie’s painting is of his brother’s country in the remote north-west of South Australia in the Anangu Pitjantjara/ Yankunytjatjara Lands. His brother passed away and that is why he is painted this story for him. There is a big waterhole – kapi piti. There are kuniya (pythons) lying on the ground, nearby. This waterhole is dry, before the rains have arrived. When it rains, the landscape becomes beautiful, full of plant life and flowers.
