STORY
This painting is about Kungkarangkalpa (Seven Sisters). The ladies are camping at Wirlurapl rockhole, just north of Wanarn community and left of the cemetery. There was a man, he was chasing the ladies everywhere. They were digging, digging, digging for water at the rockhole soak. That man was spying on them, he was trying to grab the young one. He nearly got her but they were too quick. They must have flown somewhere? Must be?
