The painting represents the tiny seeds that are harvested and grounded on flat grinding stones to make flour for bush bread (damper) It is important to havest the plants before the small seeds are lost in the sand.

The depiction in this painting shows what the harvested seeds and broken stems look like before it is grounded.

This Dreaming belongs to my late grandmother of Utopia Alhalkerre (boundary Bore) in Central Australia.
