Story & Narrative Significance
This work is a signature example of the artist's ability to blend the ancient with the modern. The rich, deep colours are applied using the traditional dots and lines of his Waradjuri and Kamilaroi family heritage, while the overall composition has a clean, contemporary graphic feel. The butterfly is a totemic figure from the Dreaming, and here it represents the powerful themes of regeneration, renewal, rebirth, and cultural survival.
The painting's cultural and therapeutic resonance was formally recognised when it was chosen to be the official logo for the Australian Counselling Association's Research Journal—a testament to its power and significance. Dr. Kennedy's long-standing position as a senior clinical member of the ACA adds another layer of personal connection to this honour.
With its strong publication history and its unique status as an institutional logo, this is a rare and important work for a serious collector of culturally significant contemporary art.
