The artist evokes here a story of the Dreamtime - the time of creation for the Aborigines - during which mythical beings (the Lightning Men, the Rainbow Python, the yam , etc.) created Australia and founded the moral, religious and spiritual laws that still govern today's Aboriginal culture. The artist tells in this canvas the legend of the Serpent (Warna), who accomplishes great deeds in the Dreamtime. The canvas represents the great ancestor seen from the sky. His body also symbolizes the paths he took during his wanderings
