It is my belief that every time we see a western european landscape painting we are in fact being presented with Terra Nullius. My works are all about that and about how we see ourselves as Australians. I reuse  and recycle original landscape paintings by other artists to create entirely new works that are culturally relevant to Australia and the issues we face. it is the most original work in the country. It was started in 1991 by me and it has spread across the globe. I am the father of this movement.
