The biblical account of David vanquishing Goliath is pure Hollywood. It’s got an underdog, a villain, triumph over evil, even nudity. With a universal appeal that defies time, place and ethnicity, its little wonder this basic premise underpins so many books and films. Intriguingly there is also an parallel between this and recent events occurring in the same region; an underdog nation that fought six wars against superior numbers and prevailed, with any minor wounds bandaged by the unconditional support of a compliant US government and corporate sector.

Australia
Matthew was featured in BRW as one of Australia's top 50 artists. In the past few years he's won, or been a finalist for, more than 70 major national art awards. He's had 14 solo and 80 group shows. He's painted all his life but allowed himself to be distracted by other careers, working variously as a lecturer, art-director, photographer & writer. His first novel was short-listed for the Vogel Literary Award. He's lived in Australia, the UK, Portugal & Malaysia, and once camped for several months beneath a grand piano. He spent nights under stars in India, under-ground in Bolivia, under surveillance in Burma and under-nourished in London. His scariest moment was having machine-gun shoved in his face during Nepalese anti-monarchy riots, although crashing a para-glider into a forest was also something of a highlight.
