Native Australian flora and fauna balance on the shoreline whilst diaphanous future buildings land like spaceships on the distant hills. Hanging suspended is an inverted European landscape with two colourful pheasants…a Eurotipodean dreamscape

Extinction Game – Red-Crowned Parakeet
2020
Pencil and watercolour on Stonehenge 250gsm paper
95 x 62cm unframed / 120 x 80cm framed
'Extinction Game - Red-Crowned Parakeet’ reimagines a historical portrait of an extinct Australian bird. This parrot was endemic to Lord Howe and is extinct since 1870.
The black and white chess board may refer to a game, to burnt and unburnt, to race, to colonial floorcloths, to finance (the French escheker), to ‘checkered’ alternations of good and bad.
