Those gas pipe signs they’re really for protest. Fracking. My aim is not to cover the words too, leave some of the words. If I cover the whole lot, they wouldn’t know what it is.  

That’s my aim, that’s for fracking. It not only happens here, it happens in Canada too. Those Indigenous people they fight it too, the fracking.

Lindsay Nelson Jakamarra grew up in Alekarenge, his home country is Jarra Jarra. Initially, he worked for the Council at Alekarenge in Community Development before settling in Tennant Creek where he began painting with the Tenant Creek Brio. Lindsay’s father was an important ceremonial boss in the region and widely respected for his knowledge of law and country – this is reflected in his sparse and elegant iconography, which draws to a great degree upon the ceremonial language of his forebears.
