Changing World, 2006 by Rusiate Lali 152x91cm

Turukawa, representing the Spirit, the land and identity, watches over us - reminding us not to forget where we come from and to continue to respect traditional values even when located in a more contemporary context.

In this work the artist’s story is very hopeful and evolves in a counter clockwise direction from the clashing images at the bottom of the painting all the way around to the newly built constructions at the centre conveying the evolution of our consciousness from the disharmony and confusion of today’s troubled world into a more peaceful and harmonious world.
