"Big Wind Coming invites people to enter into a symbolic space layered with meaning and connection. The smaller Southern Cross Boulders formation marks out a corroboree or meeting place. The boulders can also been read as the breathing tubes of mangrove roots, ochre grinding pits or termite mounds. The boulders hold small amounts of rainwater and reflect the stars at night. In the centre of the Southern Cross Boulders formation is the Listening Looking Stone, a place of observation and contemplation."
