This painting depicts designs associated with the rockhole site of Marrapinti, west of the Pollack Hills in Western Australia. The lines in this painting depict the sandhills surrounding this site.
In ancestral times a group of women of the Nangala and Napangati kinship subsections camped at this site during the travels east. While at the site the women made the nose bones, also known as the marrapinti, which are worn through a hole made in the nose web. The nose bone were originally used by both men and women but now only inserted by the older generation on ceremonial occasions.
Upon completion of the ceremonies at Marrapinti the women continued their travels east passing through Wala Wala, Ngaminya and Wirrulnga, before completing their journey upon arrival at Wilkinkarra (Lake Mackay).
