To understand the source of Emily’s inspirational verve one has to listen to what she continually said ‘my land, this is me’ . The tracking lines on this work reflects the mythology of her country called Alalgura. The movement between colours indicates the vast sources of bush tucker carpetting the whole country magically transformed after rain.
