Mungo National Park was once a lake some 40,000 years ago, but exists today as a huge dry expanse of bluebush and saltbush plain that stretches as far as the eye can see.  To the eastern side lays the Lunette - an exquisite collection of sculptured shapes rising from the edges of the lake. The lunette is made up of multiple layers of sand and silt, which over thousands of years has been eroded away to leave these modern day shapes. The Walls Of China as it’s known - is a place on the move. The prevailing westerly winds create the mechanism to shift the sand and clay and keep it all moving in an easterly direction of one and a half metres a year.   In its wake it reveals fossilised evidence of life as it existed up to 50,000 years ago of the Indigenous Australian people who thrived while hunting, fishing and living alongside this once great lake. 

This little drawing records observations of a recent visit, and some of the colour and life that inhabits this ancient land today.
