I have been called an activist artist and in some sense this is true. I became attracted to the more reformative and progressive life when I realised I would be sacked by the Department of the Attorney General and of Justice in Sydney if I came out of the closet as a gay man.

The situation, in which we find ourselves, was unimaginable in all previous centuries of humankind’s march through time.   The dinosaurs dominated the earth for some millions of years but had nothing to do with whatever changes of climate Earth went through. It took an external interstellar force of tremendous magnitude to bring about their demise. A demise, which eventually lead to the dominance of homo sapiens. Are we smarter or dumber than the dinosaurs? The time for fossilised thinking is over. Do we have the intelligence in fact, not to go to hell in a hand basket – as a poet has so amusingly put it.

PROJECT 1. STOP ADANI CAMPAIGN

​

The campaign to move Australia beyond coal and #StopAdani is critical.  Community members from around the country are undertaking frontline action to stop the construction of the Adani Carmichael mine at Moray Downs, Queensland.  These dedicated people are engaging in peaceful civil disobedience to show Adani and their supporters that the community will not let them build their mine.  Intelligent Animal support Frontline Action on Coal (FLAC) in their nonviolent campaign to Stop Adani.

 

Intelligent Animal acknowledge elders, past present and future - and that they are of continuing importance in relationship and responsibility to traditional land.  ia respect the communication protocols and the role of Elders in culture and heritage protection advice. 

 

Intelligent Animal contributes to the growing awareness of the critical action required to ensure the future of our bio-diversity and to ensure there is ongoing protection.
