The painting is associated with the Tingari Aboriginal women travelling to specific ceremonial sites surrounding Tjukurla,(Western Desert), dominated by the natural landscape of sand hills, rock holes and Aboriginal food (bush tucker).

It is at this significant place, where the Aboriginal women narrate their sacred Aboriginal Dreamtime stories.
