Breakfast at the Diner by Gwendal Guery

Oil on Stretched Canvas. 90×90 cm. Ready to hang

I spend a lot of my weekends riding my gravel bike around Warburton where I immerse myself in the landscape, breathing it in and connecting to it.  That’s where I find most of my inspiration, bringing it to my studio in Warburton or Melbourne.

We as humans are obviously not doing a good job at looking after the earth. 

Our planet and our only home can’t afford to provide as much as we take, can’t bring back lost species and lost habitat. Our greed and our “needs”, the belief that we are the most important being on this planet, has disconnected us from our natural environment. 

​Animals don’t do that…is it ultimately what defines us as humans, that we are the only species that will destroy its own environment?

​But are we not animals too? Should we not care and act a bit more like our fellow animals?

My anthropomorphic representation of kangaroos in some of my paintings, as humoristic as it can look, also raises that question. 

​Kangaroos are a particularly interesting species as they resemble humans in many ways so they fit pretty well with this concept. They would do better than us, can’t we find comfort and security in our environment without destroying our ecosystem?  It is time for us to look to our counterpart living creatures to find a way forward.
