‘Giant fig in shafts of light’

153cm x 101cm - Acrylic on stretched linen

In dry conditions, some rainforest trees can reduce their canopies, allowing more sunlight to reach the forest floor. A visit to the Bunya Mountains can be a more shady or a more sunny experience, depending on rainfall!

$3,200 AU 

‘Cunjevoi and yellow robin’

The Bunya Mountains is an important recharge area for the Great Artesian basin. Alocasia brisbanensis, commonly known as cunjevoi are a common sight in the Bunya Mountains’ dark, wet gullies which are fed by underground springs.

‘Swamp wallaby and swallet’ 

101cm x 101cm - Acrylic on stretched linen 

In the Bunya Mountains National Park, underground aquifers keep creeks and seeps permanently watered. This spring-fed pool sustains a population of native spinach and gives a passing swamp wallaby a cool drink.
