Saint Bilby the patron Saint of Climate Change

the apparition of St Bilby

"The apparition of St Bilby to the ecumenical council"  62 x 32 inches, acrylic on stretched canvas unframed.

Saint Bilby, the patron saint of global warming, hovers angelically above the assembled menagerie of manufactured dreams and culture. Made apparent in the manifestation of mechanical marsupials and lost icons, representing the ecumenical council of lost culture. They are observed by that old devil, Sam. Who, pump in hand, is well and ready to oil the pathway to a bleak and bland globalised- franchised- super-sized future.
