Description

The special river referred to in the triptych is the Murray. The Murray-Darling river is the largest in Australia. It runs through Latje Latje country and has many sites that are sacred to Craig and his people. No information was supplied on the specific sites. One of the characteristic features of Craigs’ paintings is his use of gold leaf and silver leaf that he applies to his works. His works are often sealed with a clear gloss or mat sealant or shellac for additional effect.
