Artwork Story

The barramundi symbolises a fighter and represents a skilled hunter, a provider of food when it is outsmarted.

The background represents the changing of the water colour, made up of red and yellow dots. The white lines represent how pure my culture means to me and how straight to withhold it. The brown is my skin colour, and the red-orange is a representation of my clan bloodline.

Note: Wesley Williams is not a Gulf artist, but his artwork is part of the Wes Williams Collection at Ancient Journeys. These paintings showcase his country, Cherbourg, Queensland.
