Through iconography this artwork refers to Crow Dreaming, an ancestral Dreamtime story attached to certain Ngaanyatjarra people. The artist explains: -
- The circles in the centre represents the crows, which are huddled together because they are so cold
- The lines outside the centre also represents crows, but those crows are dancing because they are warm from the fire
