ABSTRACT
This painting speaks to the relationship between humans, technologies and environments. Although the painting is in no way directly ‘about’ Indigenous peoples, it is influenced by a deep respect for the sustainable relationships with technologies that are possible when these are developed and performed within contexts shaped by awareness of universal interconnection, interdependence and proportional consequence. The transformative serpent – be it imagination, adaptation, destruction, intervention, displacement, creation – necessarily holds potential for disruption.
