Uluru Dreaming

by Pat Hartman

Uluru was formerly known as Ayres Rock

The Dreamtime is a temporary autonomous zone where anything goes. Change is the only constant. Things are consistent through their very inconsistency. Symbolism can be traditional and shared throughout the culture or it can be very personal and subjective.

The Dreamtime reconciles opposites. In the Dreamtime it can be day and night, past and present, simultaneously. Sun and stars, moon and rainbow, can coexist. Things can be seen from inside and outside, from level ground and from the sky above. Abstract and representational; spiritual and material; in the Dreamtime all dichotomies are reconciled.

These paintings are called Urban Aborigine because I'm a contemporary American city-dweller who possibly used to be an Australian Aborigine in a past lifetime. I don't know what else could explain it. The paintings are done while listening to didgeridoo.
Like the aboriginal art which inspires them, the paintings have no up-down orientation but can be hung any way. Also like the work which inspired mine, most of the paint was applied with twigs from trees.
This painting is 12" x 16" acrylic on canvasboard and has no frame or hanger. You will need to decide how best to frame and hang it, in accordance with your own decor.
Please keep in mind that colors may show somewhat differently, depending on your computer monitor and other factors.
