Description
In this small scale sculpture Solomon reflects on the commonalities between many cultures’ myths. Whimsical and beautifully crafted, this whale carrying an island on her back evokes imaginings of mysterious, mystical and magical lands. The artist has chosen to avoid the cliched sandy island with palm trees, instead opting to represent the land on which he lives (KABI-KABI) with a Moreton bay fig tree.
