Debbie Brown is the 'guardian' of the bush tomato site and as such is responsible for performing the rituals that maintain the fertility of the site: In order to impart spiritual strength to the land to sustain the growth of the plants, the artist and the women of her clan group apply body paint, sing and dance during sacred "awelye" ceremonies, in which the ground is also painted using the dotted line technique characteristic of Central Desert pictorial art, which Debbie Brown uses here. In making this painting, the painter performs a similar action.
