The large concentric circles represent the ceremonial sites. 

The small circles depicted refers to the bush melon fruit, which once grew plentiful, but now days difficult to find. The Aboriginal women gathered the fruit, either to be eaten or dried, when bush tucker became scarce. The small brush strokes represents the bush melon seed, which is discarded.

      <![CDATA[The painting depicts the bush Bananas. Eastern Arrernte Aboriginal people from central Australia refer to the bush banana in their language as <a href="http://www.aboriginalartstore.com.au/aboriginal-art-culture/alangkwe.php">Alangkwe</a> <a href="http://www.aboriginalartstore.com.au/aboriginal-art-culture/alangkwe.php"><img src="http://www.aboriginalartstore.com.au/images/btn-dictionary.gif" width="24" height="16" style="margin-bottom:0px;" align="top" alt="aboriginal dictionary button" border="0" /></a>

The Bush banana is an important plant for the Eastern Arrernte people and is a totem to certain people. The women gather the fruit promptly after rainfall, otherwise if left to long the fruit and flowers become too hot.

      <![CDATA[With the use of Aboriginal iconography this artwork refers to the artists country of <a href="http://www.aboriginalartstore.com.au/aboriginal-art-culture/antwengerrp.php">Atnwengerrp</a> <a href="http://www.aboriginalartstore.com.au/aboriginal-art-culture/antwengerrp.php"><img src="http://www.aboriginalartstore.com.au/images/btn-dictionary.gif" width="24" height="16" style="margin-bottom:0px;" align="top" alt="aboriginal dictionary button" border="0" /></a> and the women's ceremonies performed, which is illustrated 
with U shaped motifs and lines. The lines represent <a href="http://www.aboriginalartstore.com.au/aboriginal-art-culture/awelye-1.php">awelye</a> <a href="http://www.aboriginalartstore.com.au/aboriginal-art-culture/awelye-1.php"><img src="http://www.aboriginalartstore.com.au/images/btn-dictionary.gif" width="24" height="16" style="margin-bottom:0px;" align="top" alt="aboriginal dictionary button" border="0" /></a>. The large concentric circles represent the ceremonial sites. 


The small circles depicted refers to the bush melon fruit, which once grew plentiful, but now days difficult to find. The Aboriginal women gathered the fruit, either to be eaten or dried, when bush tucker became scarce. The multi coloured brush-strokes represent the wild flowers, which at certain times of the year blossom and transform the barren landscape.

      <![CDATA[This artwork depicts a weaving basket. Aboriginal women use un-spun vegetable fibers and shape into a basket form, other materials include straw, animal hair, hide, grasses, thread and wood. 

Aboriginal women are famous for their coloured basket weaving. The baskets were used for food gathering or symbolic ceremonies. 

The artist shared with Sabine Haider from Central Art her childhood memories of watching her mother and grandmothers weave baskets and create incredible patterns.
