In March 2017, I was able to visit an amazing Bushman rock art site in the Langeberg less than an hour's drive from Melkhoutfontein. One of the panels appeared to depict a healing dance with ancestors emerging from a crack in the rock to join the dance, and this inspired me to create the 2017 artwork And We Knew The Name Of The Rain. The idea of a community being rejoined by its ancestors stayed with me and eventually evolved into a mural design, which was eventually realised at Tooi's House in Harmonie Park, Melkhoutfontein.
