In this painting, Meredith depicts aspects of the famous Kungkakarangkalpa Tjukurpa, Seven Sisters Dreaming, a deeply significant songline that intersects the entire continent and has many different versions across a variety of Aboriginal language groups. The songline follows the sisters as they travel from west to east. The movements of the sisters can be tracked across the arid lands of Meredith’s ancestral country, as well as mapped in the constellations overhead, in the form of the Pleiades (Taurus) cluster. Wati Nyiru, the “bad man” who relentlessly pursues the sisters across Country in hope of marrying the youngest sister, appears in the sky as the Orion constellation. The movements of these ancestral beings formed the features of the landscape, creating hills, waterholes and rockholes as they camped and performed ceremony. Just as their travels are mapped in the landscape, so too are they mapped in the sky - the earth and the stars, mirroring and reflecting back on each other.
