Rainforest Sculptures by William Ricketts

Posted by Queuebot in Arts & Crafts on June 8, 2009 at 7:59 pm


In the lush Australian old-growth forest of Eukalyptus of Mount Dandenongs, Victoria, are a set of mesmerizing sculptures by a self-taught artist named William Ricketts.

Environmental Graffiti blog has the story:

Hidden deep within a lush Australian rainforest are a set of mystical Aborigine sculptures seemingly merged into the natural surroundings. Moss covered torsos of men, women and children protrude from tree trunks and boulders. Some reach heavenward with widespread wings, others envelop each other protectively – all are symbols of the relationship the indigenous Australian Aborigines have with nature.

    This is really cool. Reminds me of the Batman Beyond episode with the toxic waste containers.
