Weaver says "we sit down under that warda (tree) with Mardu mob for meeting. That tree belong Yulparija, it desert side."
This painting shows Weaver in her traditional country in the Great Sandy Desert of W.A. near the Percival Lakes and Well 33 of the Canning Stock route. Weaver marks herself on the canvas as the purple t-shaped form. The circle alongside her is a tree where she sat down with the Mardu people, a neighbouring language group, depicted as the cluster of circular forms alongside Weaver.
