Artwork Description

Existence flickers at the edge of chaos. In my dark heaven someone moved. I saw a cloaked silhouette move from right to left. In the land of rivers and boulders the colours are spectral across all auras. There is a red giant who seems about to throw fire – he advances into my valley and the little covid gremlin scratched on the rock goes with him. The red giant is the fire bringer, his hound a water dragon, and an eye is in his thirsty heart.

Artist Bio

Tillian lives and works in Bundanoon, a highland village bordering the vast gorges of the Morton National Park. He studied painting, film and photography at Alexander Mackie Art School, Sydney and more recently completed a Master of Creative Arts at Wollongong University. He has had five solo exhibitions and has participated in numerous group shows. Influenced by Indian ritual art, Aboriginal desert painting and Western art traditions, Tillian’s landscape paintings are visual narratives tracing passages and patterns in cyclic time and space. Works are constructed on site during lengthy sessions of immersion in the act of painting and the "happening of place".
