This painting depicts designs associated with the site of Tjukurla in Western Australia, near where the community now stands. In ancestral times a group of women gathered at Tjukurla to perform the dances and sing the songs associated with the area.

While at Tjukurla the women also spun hair with which to make nyimparra (hair-string skirts), which are worn during ceremonies. The women later travelled north towards the Kintore region. The women also collected mangata (quandong) throughout this region, as well as the edible berries and desert raisin from the small shrub Solanum centrale.

These berries can be eaten straight from the bush but are sometimes ground into a paste and cooked in the coals to form a type of damper.

The various bush foods collected by the women are represented in the painting by the numerous small circles.
