This painting depicts designs associated with the rockhole site of Umari, situated in sandhill country east of Mt Webb in Western Australia. A number of women gathered at Umari to perform ceremonies associated with the site. The women, one of the Nangala kinship subsection and the others of the Napaltjarri kinship subsection, later travelled towards the east. At this site they collected the small seeds known as wangunu or wollybutt from the perennial grass Eragrostis eriopoda to grind into a paste to make damper. One of the ancestral stories associated with the area concerns a relationship between a man of the Tjakamarra kinship subsection and a woman of the Nangala kinship subsection. This is a mother-in-law relationship, which is taboo in Aboriginal culture.
