This painting tells the story of the Seven Sisters, shown dancing, singing, gathering bush food, and hunting together. It depicts a sacred women’s site located south of Balgo—a place where women gather for lore business.
Here, important ceremonies are held to initiate young girls into womanhood, through traditional body painting and ritual. Melissa shares:
“From a little girl I saw this—my grandmother was a senior lore woman.”
The work is rich with memory and meaning, connecting the rhythms of daily life with the sacred cycles of knowledge, womanhood, and Country.
