Ginger has depicted a ‘Husband and Wife Story’. Wati translates as man, kungka as wife and walka as design or drawing. This story is about a family camping and hunting for their favourite bush tucker. The ‘u’ shapes represent the husband, wife and children. The arrow shapes represent kalaya or emu. The blue circles are the kapi tjukula or rock holes containing water. Ginger explains that the emu are walking to have a drink at the rock holes.
