"As someone who was born in Melbourne but found myseelf lured by the subtle beauty and true freedom of Darwin and the Northern Territory, I wanted to represent a lot of the imagery and icons that I believe represent this magical place. The centre of my piece being the crocodile; as this prehistoric reptilian not only serves as an icon of the NT and totem of the Larrakia people, it is creature of unchanged evolution. I find Darwin also holds this philosophy, as it's locals hold dearly to the nature of this town, unchanged. Spiraling outwards are representations of different parts of the community and the daily life, to be recognisable to locals and tourists alike, as all share in what this place has to offer"
