Ned Grant depicted the significant site of Palpatatjara located in the east of traditional Spinifex Country which holds the Tjilpu Tjuta Tjukurpa (Many Birds Creation Line). This story is highly sacred in nature and deals with Zebra Finch Men as they travel south to the Nullabor coast. This is Tjukurpa that Ned has the authority and responsibility for through birthright and paternal links and he takes this very seriously.
