Jeswri says of his mural "This mural is a self-portrait of me dressed as a crocodile being dragged under water by an actual crocodile. The idea was to make it a bit lighthearted. I like to tell stories with my work and I like to have actual conversations about it as opposed to just having a photo taken of it.
The crocodile grabbing my character by my tail suggests that I'm diving more into my own Aboriginal heritage. Part of my motivation for this wall is ultimately paying tribute to the local Larrakia mob here who see the Crocodile as one of their totems - its my aim to pay homage and respect to locals by including the croc.
