About The Artwork

' The Ranger was no Robin Hood, there were no accounts of him cham- pioning the downtrodden, or even shouting the bar a round of drinks. His cruelty is unsurpassed in this colony’s short history, except of course by the brutality inflicted upon the blacks. He might gun down an unarmed man in front of his family or take a babe from its mother’s arms and dash its head against the rocks without remorse or reason. By all accounts he once gauged out a teller’s eye to teach the bank’s clients a lesson. His maliciousness was mostly without motivation, as if he were some diabolical manifestation of the colony’s rotten conscience, the horror beyond the veneer of ‘Marvellous Melbourne’.' Purchase a limited edition print from the award-winning book. Written and illustrated by Lachlan Plain, The Lost Journals of Pedro Piscator and other tales is an eclectic illustrated collection of tall tales from across the globe and throughout the ages. 'This image is the composite of ten separate scans. It consists of two self portraits and a picture of Fay Ray from the 1933 King Kong. ' Lachlan Plain.

Since childhood Lachlan has lived in other worlds, on different plains, navigating them via several mediums – performance, painting and the written word. He won the 2012 Impress Prize for his first book, 'The Lost Journals of Pedro Piscator and other tales'. He has taken part in several solo and group exhibitions, as well as creating murals and sculpture for public spaces and commercial outlets. He is artistic director of Sanctum Theatre, a visual performance company presenting folk theatre in everyday spaces since 2006. He has also worked for the Snuff Puppets for the past few years, an irreverent and scatological giant puppet company, performing in their shows and directing their People Puppet Projects in Australia, Denmark, Sweden, South Korea, Thailand and Chile.
