Untitled [Goanna]

ROA’s large-scale mural of a goanna was first inspired by an encounter he had during a previous visit to Australia. ROA explained, “the last time I was in Australia, I witnessed my friend Keith, who lives in the Pilbara region and is native to the land, catch a goanna to barbecue with his family. It was amazing to witness how he caught the lizard – he asked the goanna for permission to kill him and feed his family, all in his traditional language.”
