Sarong – Kurriyala (Carpet Snake)

The carpet snake is an important animal for us.  We call it Kurriyala in our Kuku Yalanji language. Our ancestors wrapped the meat in native ginger leaves and cooked it on the hot coals of the ground oven. They also used the skin to make head bands or skillfully sown blankets that keep the families warm and dry at night.

Biography:

Claude is an abstract ocean artist whose work is inspired by the raw, primal energy of the sea. He is drawn to the fluid forms and vibrant colors of the ocean, and uses these elements in his paintings to convey the motion and emotion of the waves. His abstract style allows him to explore the depths of the ocean in a more expressive and imaginative way, and he hopes that his paintings can evoke a sense of awe and wonder in those who view them.

Claude is constantly seeking new ways to capture the essence of the ocean in his work, and is constantly learning and growing as an artist. He is deeply grateful for the opportunity to share his art with the world, and hopes that it brings as much joy and inspiration to others as it does to him.
