This Rollershutter Art piece has been created as part of the Mparntwe Street Art Festival 2024 in conjunction with Red Hot Arts and proudly sponsored by Activate Alice.
This artwork was inspired by a photo taken by a local birder John Gruen. The background reflects the glorious sun rise colours in the Top End. It is built up in many layers of encaustic medium (a liquid combination of bees wax and fir tree resin) and shellac that is burned with a naked flame to create cells of intense colour.
