About the Artwork – The Band Played Waltzing Matilda
Painted on ANZAC Day 2020, The Band Played Waltzing Matilda is my tribute to the courage, sacrifice and enduring legacy of the Australian servicemen and women who have served our country.
Inspired by Eric Bogle's powerful song of the same name, the artwork reflects the experiences of young Australians sent to war, particularly those who fought at Gallipoli during the First World War. The song tells a moving story of youthful optimism, the devastating realities of battle and the lasting physical and emotional consequences of war.
The red poppies honour fallen servicemen and women, while the purple poppies remember the horses, dogs and other animals who served alongside them, often making the ultimate sacrifice.
Through this painting, I honour those who never returned, those whose lives were forever changed by war, and the families who carried the impact of their sacrifices.
Lest We Forget.
