Additional Information

Saving Giuliano : by Josslyn  Martin Art  – Limited edition (100) print. This larger A2 print of Josslyn’s painting, which was initially inspired by a photograph taken by the American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1939 — specifically, an image of  Chris Adolph’s younger children. When Josslyn first saw Dorothea’s photo she commented, “Something about their expressions, the setting, the rawness of it — it all struck a deep chord. It immediately brought to mind Australia’s own Depression-era struggles. Times when food was scarce and rabbits, for many, became a vital source of protein and survival.”

In this full reproduction of the painting you see both sides of a conflict. To the right of Alessia and her pet rabbit, you see her home, with the washing hanging outside, and a sign that the farm is still occupied. This represents safety. To the left, signs of fear, pain, isolation and death depicted by the scarcrow the barbed wire and the black crows.
