I
believed that most of people who visited Art Gallery of new south wales, fruit
bats catch
their eyes straightway, 99 of 16-inches fiberglass figures hanging
from a spidery, umbrella-
shaped clothesline. As I approach, I realize that
they’re flying foxes—big-eyed, pointy-eared
fruit bats of the type I’ve seen
fluttering overhead in the evening. I happen to love bats, and
these particular
sculptures are stunning in their stylization. From behind wings decorated
with
crosshatches, a pattern called rarrk in indigenous art. Lin Onus developed a
distinctive
visual language from a combination of traditional and contemporary
Aboriginal imagery. The
important that I liked and impressed by this artwork was that in this artwork the artist shows
different between two culture and the contrast between values.
Good work
