A painting depicting the final scene from the film Walkabout, but overlaid with an image of Bodmin Moor instead of the Australian outback. The woman who, in formative years, lived as a hunter gatherer after being rescued by an aboriginal teenager, struggles to connect with her life within four walls with a husband who is talking about office restructuring, as her mind drifts to her more fulfilling former life in nature.
