Original Aboriginal Art Stretched Canvas (1.5m x 1m) - Snake Waterhole on Cooper Creek

Original Artwork Stretched Canvas - Murramura Dreaming - Snake Waterhole on Cooper Creek by Michael J Connolly (Munda-gutta Kulliwari)

This canvas represents the landscape around Cooper Creek of the Lake Eyre region as seen by the Muramura - a spirit person who can travel all over the land. The Muramuras made toas [like direction posts] that outlined the landscape they had travelled - similar to a topographical map. This artwork represents a snake-like waterhole near Cooper Creek on Country with gum trees along the banks and sand dunes with bushes growing - this is Michael's interpretation of this Murramura Dreaming.

Michael Connolly is an Aboriginal from Charleville, south west Queensland and a descendant of the KullillI Tribe from the Thargomindah and Eulo region on his Father's side and from the Muruwari People from Goodooga and Brewarrina region of north-west New South Wales on his Mother's side who can trace their traditional trade and diplomatic links with Central Desert as well as South Australian and Northern New South Wales' Aboriginal Communities. With this rich Indigenous background and a unique way of interpreting his cultural heritage Michael is able to represent a unique perspective in the visual and performing arts that informs his significant work in cross cultural contexts
