Kathleen has painted the country south of Balgo in the Great Sandy Desert. The country depicted here is named Nakarra Nakarra. This is the site of the Seven Sisters Dreaming, a story about seven sisters who travelled this country during the Tjukurrpa (Dreaming), running from an old man who wanted to marry the youngest. Today at Nakarra Nakarra, a group of hills embody the seven sisters. This painting represents the hills and the tali (sand dunes) found in this country.
Painted in 2006.
