Dear Judith,
Thankyou for your review. You captured the spirit of my
message very well
and I hope it was that apparent to everyone else. The
work on my Grandfather
is very special to me and I plan to compliment it with
a celebration of My
Grandmother, a strong Aboriginal women, Billy's widow.
The super heroes are based on my children's heroes, their
aunty and uncles,
and lore-man is a little like my Grandfather but utilising
commercial
aspects like computer games with traditional utilities
(ie. animal skin).
You're right about my children finding their hero in people
like my grandfather
and so I also plan to produce work about heroes/Icons
from eight generations
and four continents given the heritage my family have.
Some of it will be as terrorising.
Now that I have said all this I should just do it.
Regards,
Lesley Murray
