In this painting, Ursula Hudson presents her version of the Dream of Pikilyi, a sacred site where there is a water hole and a stream, not far from Yuendumu. Legend has it that a pair of Rainbow Snakes lived there. Women came to remove lice attached to the bodies of the two mythical beings, who in return gave them the right to take water from the stream. The Aborigines still celebrate ceremonies in this place where the spirit of the two snakes continues to reside.
