The painting depicts the bush plum ( Anwekety ), a staple Aboriginal food source
(bush tucker), gathered by the Aboriginal women from Utopia, Aboriginal Art Regions of Central Australia.
In Awelye ceremonies the women celebrate the spirit of the bush plum to ensure future productivity.
This fruit is only available for a few weeks of the year and the plant is recognised by Aboriginal people for its medicinal qualities (bush medicine).
