Tjaruwa has depicted country associated with the Minyma Tjuta Tjukurpa (Seven Sisters Creation Line). This is an epic womens narrative that follows the journey of a group of young women who traverse the Spinifex Lands, evading the lustful pursuit of an older man (Nyiru). These are creation beings who shaped the landscape as they moved through it, leaving indelible reminders of their power and presence. Tjaruwa knows the paths the women took and can trace their journey verbatim. She is now a reference for the younger women on all things Spinifex.
