Painting - Dyes And Resist On Silk
Description
This painting, in dyes and metallic resist on silk, celebrates the languid beauty of an afternoon in the Fiji Islands. The patterns made by leaves of the cassava plant, one of our basic food crops, intertwine with a shell, coral, kava roots, and frangipani blossoms, and traditional coconut shell cups, used to drink kava. A corded whales tooth, symbol of high esteem in our indigenous culture, is a hidden yet central feature.
