During the Dreaming time of the artist’s ancestors, a group of men
and women travelled through the desert to Kaakuratintja – Lake McDonald.
When they arrived at the site a large hailstorm occurred and killed all
that were in the area. This image relates to the occurrence of the hailstorm.
It is now part of the Tingari cycle of events.
