Crossroads

Inspired by the Australian experience, this piece was one of several works exhibited in ‘The Way I See It’ group show in Sydney.
Ro has reflected on his perspective of life in Australia and detailed the connection between everyday people and his local neighbourhood, North Bondi.
A common scene of suburban Australia is depicted here with a Kookaburra perched on a street light below a network of powerlines at a telegraph pole.
