This design by Benita Multa depicts the camels of Kungkayunti (Brown's Bore). Of the design, Benita says: "In my country, Kungkayunti (Brown's Bore), there are lots of camels walking around in the sand hills. You can see them everywhere in between the big desert oak trees." Benita has lived within Ikuntji Community, Haasts Bluff, and Brown's Bore Outstation all her life, beginning her journey with painting in 1999. She paints the country around Haasts Bluff, Brown's Bore and Muruntji. Focusing on the relationship between land and sky, her works define the parameters of life within this, her birth country.
