In Anangu culture the word Milkali blood is a very sensitive word and can be used offensively but in this painting Milkali kutju means one blood. Its about Indigenous and non-Indigenous working long side one another and learning and sharing two different cultures ngapartji - ngapartji. 50 - 50. It doesn't matter what colour or race we are, its about what's below the surface Milkali blood that we are there for one another and that life is too short to allow grey scales come between us as a culture. We can learn from one another. By moving forward by closing the gaps and not blaming one another for our father's actions whether they were good or bad choices. In this painting you will see a lot of colours, our mind will tell us what we only want to see but in this painting there is only two colours black and white and below the surface different shades of red. Whenever you look at this painting appreciate what we have because its only for a short period of time.
