Karnakurlangu translates to 'belonging to women'. Topographically, the sacred site of Mina Mina, Dorothy's traditional country, is made up of two enormous soakage areas that, rarely filled with water, exist as clay-pans. As water soaks into the ground small areas of earth dry out and lift at the edges becoming delineated by salt. In this striking design of white dotting Dorothy depicts the crustations of salt stretching infinitely onward, etched with the tracks of the women as their paths stretch on, crossing and merging, telling their stories.
