He Australian - Limited Edition Etching by Rusiate Lali
This etching symbolises the excitement the artist feels by exploring this broad expansive country of Australia, whether it be amongst the skyscrapers of Sydney or the outback of the Northern Territory where he says ‘Here the land listens’.
Rusiate, one of the most exciting and provocative artists to exhibit at Gallery Gondwana, comes from a long lineage of potters, carvers, tapa cloth and fibre artists. Named Contemporary Fijian Artist of the Year in 1999, Rusiate’s work is a sensuous mix of past and present, myth and reality. He has had five solo exhibitions and participated in many group exhibitions. To date much of his work has explored his personal experiences and his universal awareness of social issues. He handles these subjects with intelligence and sensitivity.
This etching is available unframed but also available for sale in a red frame - cost including frame would be $850
