On the back of the art, Lance had written that he was inspired by Revel Cooper. Coincidentally, I am currently working on a book and film about Revel Cooper's fascinating life. Lance is related to another Carrolup artist, Reynold Hart. I love Reynold and Revel's artworks.
Here is the YouTube intro to this film:
Contemporary West Australian artist Lance Chadd who works under his traditional Aboriginal name Tjyllyungoo, was commissioned by Edith Cowan University in 2015 to produce a painting for ECU's new building Ngoolark, situated on its Joondalup campus.
This film captures the artist at work on his painting 'Ngoolark' based on the black cockatoo which bears this Nyoongar name, and which features in the dramatic design and architecture of the new building in which the painting will be housed. The film also briefly touches on the artist's diverse and spiritually-rich oeuvre of work and his deep connection with the land and his Aboriginal heritage.
