91 x 30 cm

Ref No: NN1357/16

The particular site of this Dreaming is Ngarlikurlangu, north of Yuendumu. Emus travelled to the rockhole at this place to find water. In this painting the emus are represented by their footprints, which are the arrow-like shapes and the rockhole is the circular shape connected by lines. The emus also walk around eating bush raisins, wich are depicted by the concentric circles.
