This painting depicts designs associated with the rock hole and soakage water site of Nagminya, just to the south-west of the Kiwirrkura Community in Western Australia. A group of women came from the west and made camp at this site. They gathered the edible berries known as kampurarrpa or desert raisin from the small shrub Solanum centrale which grows in the area. The arcs represent sandhills surrounding the area.
