Australia: ancient, sacred land of the Dreamtime.
Rainbow Serpent creates in her image - Deep, Powerful and mysterious.
After aeons of time comes the sky god people, exploitative, short sighted
and failing to understand the true wealth of the great southern continent.
The dark beast has risen.
These are the snakes in the top corners of the painting. On the left
of the image, the snake of Uranium. His scales are painted in dollar signs,
radioactive symbols and the number 92, atomic weight of this creature.
The snake in the right corner is the dark Beast of Plutonium , dollar signs,
radioactive symbols and the number 94 make up his body. Inside his open
mouth , the demon of apocalypse, the nuclear holocaust.
Rainbow Serpents scales are made of the Peace sign, the sign for nuclear
disarmament. She dreams into reality the sacred landscape of this Realm,
Spirit protector beings residing in the transpersonal realms resonate
to the power of peace and the non disturbance of this Sacred landscape.
