Alice Springs is the half circle at the top of the painting. The visiting
researcher travels from Alice Springs to the community. In the middle
is a community meeting. The white U shapes are the visiting researchers
sitting down with community leaders to explain and to ask permission.
The community leaders say OK. Then the visitors go out to talk with
families in the community and in outstations. They go with local
Nintiringtjaku workers (brown footsteps).
They sit down and explain and ask questions and listen. The Nintiringtjaku
workers explain in language and English so everyone understands. The
Nintiringtjaku workers help people to talk up about what is OK to write
down and what is private.
