Hunting Grounds
This painting is about hunting grounds. Different clans had different areas that they hunted on known as hunting grounds. The separate sections of the painting represent a different area or different animal that was hunted – goanna, kangaroo, emu, and many others. The stick figure is a warrior holding a boomerang and a spear. These are hunting tools. Each square shape pattern represents a clan group closing in on animals for the hunt. The centre part is the ancestors tracking animals on country.
