Last Supper (500 Piece) Artist - Breakaway Art
Difficulty Rating: 6/10 Adult 8/10 Child/Teens Suitable 9 years and over
The artist writes this about what she considers her favourite painting:
The Last Supper idea occurred to me on the Sydney Harbour Bridge while I was thankfully the passenger in a car. The idea struck me as so powerful and relevant that I couldn't wait to get home.
Uluru means meeting place in the local Aboriginal language and here we have the last members of their species gathering at this auspicious site for their Last Supper. Heading the meeting is an Aboriginal Elder who also shares their demise: loss of their land and habitat, for a mono culture of hoofed edible animals for the human's insatiable appetite for meat.
In the background a kangaroo boxes a cow to reclaim the land and the irony of it is that had we opted to eat the kangaroo rather than the cow the land would have been saved from the destructive erosion caused by the hoof and lack of informed choice.
On the wall of the cave you can see painted on the walls the image of the Tasmanian Tiger, a creature which once lived at Uluru just 2,000 years ago. It's fate was sealed when dingoes were introduced by humans crossing the seas from the North. It stands as a symbol for two things: man's negative impact and through art his unique ability to be visionary, intelligent and forward thinking.
