Joy Nagala Brown, © Warlukurlangu Artists, Yuendumu, NT

A powerful piece by a newly-emerging artist painting with Warlukurlangu Artists. This story starts at Mawurrungu to the south-west of Yuendumu. The Mala Dreaming travels from there to Yinjirrimardi and then further on to Yantumpuru and Jila, far to the west of Yuendumu. 'Mala' (rufous hare-wallaby - lagorchestes hirsutus) live in hollows dug under spinifex clumps. 'Mala' are difficult to hunt as they run very fast throughout their habitat in the spinifex country.
