cannibal country


Andrew, in his post today, alerted me to an exhibition at RMIT that is showing an animated short film telling the story of the underground cannibals of Lake Disappointment. The animators created the short film from paintings by one of my favourite aboriginal artists, Billy Atkins, including a painting in my collection. The trees from the painting I own our actually visible in the photographic stills that Andrew took of the animation at RMIT.

If you got eaten when you went for a swim, you'd be, to say the least, disappointed

I think the greater disappointment is finding the Lake to be bone dry.
