Mona said this story originated at Lapaku, a homeland near Warakurna (GIles Station) in Western Australia. Warakurna is her father's and grandfathers country and where their homeland is situated. It is a secret story. One man died in this story. The men elders had inma (ceremony). Ikaka, a woman, stole something which was men's business only. The elders chased Ikaka and her husband when they tried to run away. The elders found them and killed the husband. Ikaka ran, leaving behind their baby, away from her grandfathers country. She went to Langaliki's fathers place, Kunamata.This lady she passed away there. Mona said she can't tell the full story, as it is watiku (mens) story, she can only tell the Minymaku (womens story). "She never came back no more and she sing for that man" Mona said. "This is real story".
In this painting she is showing the country travelled by the wife as she escaped. The circles represent water or rock holes/soaks where water collects. The areas of cream connecting the rockholes are the dry sandy creek beds. The areas of brown are the puli or rocky outcrops.
