The Nasties of Murrayville, 1991




This painting was my representation of the strangeness of Murrayville, a town in far northwest Victoria. I travelled there early in 1991 as part of a crew making a student film. After a bad meal on the first night I fell ill and spent most of the time in a delirium. At first glance it seemed a perfectly normal rural town (with a fabulous army tank bone yard ), but I saw something very disturbing in Murrayville, and I often wonder if all just a dream, exacerbated by my delirious state. Except that it wasn't a dream, because I have the physical proof. One day I’ll show it.
