ARTIST NOTES: This painting is based on one of the many mutton birds found washed up on the shore of Middleton Beach during November 2013, having died of starvation during a long and arduous migratory flight back to southern Australia from the north Pacific.
I can’t help but see in its outstretched wing one last almighty effort to continue on its journey – but was it a desperate bid to continue in this life or accepting aid for safe passage into the next?
