Rainbow Serpent Being - By Alex Grey
“Rainbow Serpent Being,” the most recent artwork by Alex Grey, was painted while on tour in four Australian cities. The theme honors the annual gathering that has brought together “Love Tribe” Aussies for the last thirteen years.  The Rainbow Serpent Festival is held each year in Victoria, Australia on the weekend prior to Australia Day. The serpent of Aboriginal legend is of immense proportions, originates from beneath the ground and is responsible for pushing up huge ridges, mountains, gorges, and meandering snake-like waterways across the landscape.  Resting in deep permanent waterholes, the mythic Rainbow Serpent, is symbolic of the creative force.”
