Sisyphus by Elliot in Annandale

Sisyphus

depicts a car wreck found near Mudgee NSW. The work contextualises the Greek mythology of ‘Sisyphus within a native Australian landscape’, fusing symbolism from Aboriginal dreamtime stories and folklore. The inalienable interconnection between all things, well-understood in pre-colonial society, is juxtaposed against the inheriteted burdens of the post-industrial world, whose punishing follies are condemned to reoccurance, until ancient lessons in humility are recovered.
