Tarkul, 1999, was painted in the year leading up to the landmark exhibition of desert painting, Papunya Tula: Genesis and Genius at the Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney, where Tjapaltjarri collaborated with a number of other male Pintupi artists to create a ground painting featuring a similar design for the vernissage.
