This artwork refers to the Dreamtime creation, in which there lived two spiritual beings, one was an Mpetyane man and the other Ngala man.
These men were father and son. They sat on these two big hills and above them was this huge cloud. Attached to this cloud they both held Head string, rope made out of ancestral hair. They sat there pulling the cloud towards themselves, showing their strength. Ngala was the strongest and is the custodian of all the Dreamtime songs from his country.
