Heads in a landscape (2015)
The vivid and populous nightscapes of the outback (largely invisible to city dwellers) are more than a backdrop to these Heads in a landscape; rather this triptych speaks to the very different world view ('headscape') of this most ancient Australian culture: Traditional Aboriginal culture effortlessly fuses areas of understanding which Europeans 'naturally' keep separate: ecology, cosmology, theology, social morality, art, comedy, tragedy – the observed and the richly imagined fused into a seamless whole.

The dimensions of each image in this triptych are 12cm x 16cm (unframed) and 23cm x 28cm (framed). Although they are shown below closely juxtaposed, each is in a separate frame and so they may be hung with space between the images.
The triptychs may be purchased online for $AU 1,000. The purchase price includes all three images in the triptych and the frames (if requested).
