Rosabella represents wild flowers growing in Utopia. There are many different varieties of wild flowers, known as Alpeyt, including many with medicinal properties or sweet honey used to make a sweet drink.
Rosabella paints the Dreamtime story of the Arnkerrthe which has been passed down from her father's country, Atnangkere. Arnkerrthe travelled over Rosabella's land creating all of the people, sacred sites, songs and other Dreamtime stories. In its neck it holds a sac of ochre that Rosabella and her people use for ceremonies.
