Poowong series, a set on Flickr.
I painted the Poowong series in the 1980's. The paintings have been destroyed but the photo's survive. The theme was based on organic and mental structures, complex problems and simple solutions. Poowong is a small town in SE Gippsland Victoria. Land of dairy cattle and potatoes.

  By its very nature unpredictable Intentionally distorted to make sense Lost in the experience of being sublime When the sky rests down User Paid For Lies and Deceit Fully Automated Luxurious Capitalism Turbocharged Capitalism and Galactic Tourism By its very nature unpredictable. Intentionally distorted to make sense. Lost in the experience of being sublime. Each evening, when the sky rests down. Our users paid for our lies and deceit. A Promised Land.

Jingili Circumnavigated

  Reconfiguring the metaphor.  The world needs successful leaders.  They must want to achieve. To shift us from good to great. Forging ahead and getting around restrictions. Breaking national protections. Cutting the red tape. Warrantless access to our metadata. Shared across borders. Encroachments made to preserve prosperity. And maximizing returns. by reorganizing structures. To maintain productivity and continuous growth. A starting point. To be something that your opponent agrees with. Part of the agenda. To have a curious mind and an urge to make sense. As inflow. Being proper. Being skeptical.  In doubt. Knowing deterrence formulations.  A methodology.  Seeking that piece of information. That will make a difference. To be better, faster, and cheaper. As a pioneer. And profit from the insecurity of elites. Trim Circumnavigated  Adaptive Suitable for service Faithful and affectionate But stolen and eaten From the gutters  Time well spent Forever trying to make it Curious, creative,

Simulacrum Bark Hut Batwoman

  Bark Hut Batwoman Simulacrum Northern Territory Gothic Shadows Poem Video Bark Hut Inn Bat Woman Arrives Brutally dispossessed. Placed onto a reserve. And promised rations. Detering the minority from becoming the majority. All stand-down when aesthetics enters the room. Imagined realities. Perspective from the darkness. Obsessions, failure, and virtue. Anxieties, fear, and panic. How did we know the world? Our ghosts of opportunity and precious wealth. Our unspeakable and inexpressible horror. To evoke and convey our superior taste.

Rapid Creek Plant Life

  You can taste it in the air It is outer-worldly All alone Radical That night Walk out of the car  Feel special Sheer bliss Forget the narcissist leader Who persuades you through their exceptional talent The leader who elicits your secrets Who manipulates every situation you are in The leader who is beyond control Who will make you regret Idiots all of them Basking in their callous work Take a step outside Walk into the night And enjoy the uniqueness of life I have always believed in miracles My victory was expected I was one of those unpopular leaders But they voted me in I want to make you happy But I made a mess of it From this crisis to the next The smirk was killing me But I learned quite a lot I took command I took control I picked a direction and I went for it I became humorous I became frequent I became spontaneous They now know I care for them  They now know that I understand  I know what you are going through The predicted actions of leaders Who fall into helplessness Who b

Australian Gothic

  The land  Where there are no crumbling castles  No bloodsucking vampires No ancient monsters No antiquity Too immature for proper history The terror is unseen The terror has been repressed  Through imperial violence, fear, and subversion Mass transportation to the dungeon of the world 50 thousand years  Then came The water buffalo The missionaries Pastoral activity Uranium mining Forestry Tourism Sheer relentless pressure Bringing forth crisis and social breakdown And obligated to make way We sense their dread As they combined the elements to create a threat A social, religious, and physical threat The darkest mountain The deepest canyon There is no escape THEN There are those who predicted the threat Those who compose the realities of impending horror  Those who shepherd the flock into their shelters As we return to our nooks and anticipate their foretold slaughter When you feel an object is both alive and not alive Consecrated Special powers Invisible forces Made powerful for huma
