Maralinga - Original Oil Painting On Canvas 101cm X 101cm (103cm x 103cm framed)

A vast landscape, shaped by heat, distance and isolation.

This painting is inspired by reports of unexplained lights and UFO sightings around Maralinga, in the remote South Australian desert. Against this distinctly Australian landscape, the small craft introduces a sense of mystery and the unknown.

I’m drawn to the way landscapes hold stories. Maralinga carries a complex history, while these unexplained sightings have become part of the folklore surrounding this remote place.

The painting brings together landscape, history and imagination, reflecting the enduring mysteries woven into the Australian story.
