Bushland Mystery #6 Min Min #2 is a continuation of this investigation into the representation of this puzzling phenomenon. According to Molly Hunt in her abc.net.au report of
September, 2018, Aboriginal legend encourages the belief that, if a person is caught by these spirit lights, that person will permanently disappear from sight; and that the lights are the spirits of Australian Aboriginal elders who are caring for the country.
While a report from University of Queensland of 27th March 2003 tells of Professor Pettigrew's report on his experience of an encounter with these lights as, even though the lights seems of be of magical influence in the way they appear to be reacting, they more likely to be a result of light refraction from a natural or man-made source, by a transposed trick of the light.
Even so, the Min Min lights continue to add to the nebulous quality of the Australian bushland areas.
After extensive trial with various other art materials, I made the choice to use the acrylic spray paint to produce these works, as I considered they were best suited to express the nebulous quality of the lights and the ethereal mystery of the bushland areas.
