TRAVELLING THROUGH COUNTRY
This design comes from an original painting of Damien’s Country, Mount Liebig, west of Papunya. Damien’s great-grandfather and his family are travelling through the desert towards Kintore, collecting food along the way.
In the bottom right-hand corner, the sun is setting over a hillside. The family stops to camp at different locations along their journey. The red concentric circles represent dry rockholes, while the blue and white concentric circles indicate rockholes filled with clean water, which flows into nearby creeks.
The red stripes radiating from the centre on the right-hand side of the painting show the tracks of the family walking through the sand. Spinifex bushes are depicted as yellow star-like symbols, and dry claypans with cracked earth are also visible, capturing the natural features of Damien’s Country.
