Artwork Story

The goanna is a silent hunter and is native to my country.

The six dotted circles represent boundaries—they are the waterholes, springs, and hunting grounds. The background features footprints, while the patches of red and brown ochre, along with yellow ochre, signify feeding and hunting grounds.
