The stretched orange shapes streaked with white represent the ancestral parturient, while the four concentric circles seem to stage the very birth of the watering hole.

The three thick orange lines at the edges of the canvas represent the "nulla nulla" or puzzle weapons that the women carried with them, symbolized by the "U" shapes at the ends of the weapons. The red circles symbolize the wild grapes - or kampurarrpa - that the women fed on during their wanderings.

Ningura's palette is limited to orange, white and the dominant ochre-red, symbolizing the female blood spilled during childbirth, and testifying to the profoundly vitalist nature of the artist's inspiration.
