Lucy has depicted some of her traditional country located far to the south of Balgo, deep in the Great Sandy Desert. Depicted here is the country around a tjurrnu, or soakwater called Winpurpula. The Tjukurrpa (Dreamtime) story for this country tells of some ancestral women of the Nungurrayi, Nampitjin and Napangardi skin groups who came to camp at Winpurpula. These ancestral women made a fire close to the water, and started dancing a secret/sacred dance. The dancing went all night after which they started walking a long way west. Along the way they showed off their superb gathering skills by collecting food such as purra (bush tomato), kantilli (bush raisin) and minyali, a type of seed. The small dots throughout this print depict these foods.
