are the primary food gatherers in Aboriginal society. It is
their responsibility to keep track of food sources, such as
bush wheat, bush plums and honey ants. They travel regularly
to locations of these sources where ceremonies are performed
to propitiate the spirit and energy of the ancestors. This painting
portrays the geography of the gathering area and the gatherers
as they harvest honey comb contents from the wild bee hives.
Various symbols and colors represent the terrain as viewed from
above, the perspective from which the work is painted. |
