Dreamings: Les oeuvres de Margaret représentent le plus souvent les cycles « Tingari ».
Les Tingari étaient un groupe d’ancêtres qui ont émergé de la terre durant le temps de la création, temps de la création nommé temps du rêve ou Tjukurrpa.
Les activités qui ont été menées par les « Tingari » constituaient le fondement de tous les êtres vivants. Plantes et animaux, végétation tout autant que topographie des lieux sont des preuves des rituels des anciens. De plus, les ancêtres ont pris la forme de plantes, d’êtres humains ou d’animaux.

Dreamings: This painting represents the Tingari cycles. The Tingari were a group of ancestral beings that emerged from the earth during the time of creation referred to as “Tjukurrpa”.
The activities that were conducted by the Tingari formed the basis of all living things. The plants and animals, the vegetation as well as the topographic features are all evidence of the ancestral rituals. Ancestral beings can be in the form of plants, people or animals.
This painting depicts a women’s ceremonial site near Kiwirrkura. The circle at the centre of the painting represents women sitting around a campsite. The lines running along the edge of the painting represent tali tali (sand hills).
The country surrounding Kiwirrkura is known as big mob sand hill country. This sand hill country was crossed by Tingari women as they made their way towards Wilkinkarra, Lake Mackay
