| Description/Remarks |
Image of black and brightly coloured vertical lines - the black lines outlined with white.
During the Dreamtime a group of women travelled to Mina Mina, on their way East. They carried digging sticks and collected bush tucker: varieties of edible fungus (or native truffle) that appears after rains. The painting represents the digging sticks the women carried.
