The painting refers to Napurrula and Nakamarra women, who are gathering bush potato (Yarla). The bush potato grows fibrous tubers underground, which the women use their digging sticks to locate them, or by looking for cracks in the ground near the plant.
The lines in the painting depict the root system and the branches of the bush potato plant. The circle represents the hole, where the women must dig to find the bush potatoes.
Lorna was born c.1920 in Yumurrpa country, which is situated near Chilla Well, south of the Granites Mine Area of the Tanami Desert.
