day we rock up to his studio, owner and master print maker, Theo Temblay is kicking back kerbside trading tales with his star artist, Glen Mackie. Like most folks in this region, they welcome us with a warm smile and an invitation to come on in.  \u003Cbr\u003E\r\n\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EOn the wall is a fierce monochromatic print of a warrior chief who turns out to be Mackie’s great, great grandfather, Kebisu, a man who killed some of the first Europeans that came to north Queensland.   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E“He is the last chief of Yam Island and he was the first one to make contact with the English ships,” explains the softly-spoken Mackie. “His job was to protect the Torres Strait. Our people called white people ghosts (back then). They saw them and thought it was their ancestors come back to haunt them. So, they killed them - again.   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E“It was nothing personal,” he shrugs.   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EBorn in Torres Strait Islands, Mackie moved to Cairns in 2002. He is the only artist from the 600 strong community on Yam Island, and he sees it as his duty to tell the stories of his people.   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E“You can't see our place on the map. So, someone has to tell our stories,” he says of finely detailed lino block prints, some depicting legends, others showcasing family totems like the crocodile or map out hunting grounds.   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EMackie believes he could be the island’s last story teller.  \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E“It’s very important to continue the stories of my community. My culture is dying and I’m scared,” he says, reminding us that Torres Strait Islands only got television in 1992.   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E“Growing up we used to look for octopus. You don't see that anymore.” On a recent visit home, Mackie “freaked out seeing 10 kids under a tree not talking to each other” their eyes glued to screens.  \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E“For me (art is) not about the money. I'd rather educate people about my culture.”  \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EMackie’s prints are based around the stories he was told while hanging around with the Elders, and particularly his grandfather who he claims is an inspiration for his work.   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E“I was always around my grandparents. My Granddad taught me carving. He was an artist who did design work on wood, around drums, on artefacts, and on weapons.”   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EIt’s at that point that Mackie grabs a 30 cm black wooden club and points to the intricate carving and colourful seeds embedded into the handle as proof of his people’s skill. As pretty as it is, the carving has a practical application.   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E“Blood is really slippery. If you carve into the wooden handle, it’s easier to grip,” he says.  \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EGruesome. But practical. Clearly it’s time to move back to the prints, many larger than two metres and created through a collaborative approach between the artist and Theo Tremblay whose philosophy is to help artists create bigger sized prints in volume.   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E“Artists like Glen already have fine arts skills but by working with us, he can create larger scale work,” says Tremblay.  \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EHe then points to Mackie’s big pillowy hands and jokes that “those are not meant for small spaces.”  \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EMackie supports this process. “I don't want to do (my art) in little pieces. I like big art. You can feel the stories. You do big (art) and you can tell the whole story at once,” He also admits that he prefers to focus on carving and leave the printing to Tremblay.   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EOne of Mackie’s most acclaimed pieces is the story of Mokan, a black and white composition centred around the legend of puffer fish turned into a rock in an act of revenge. He entered the piece into the Telstra Awards and although it didn’t win any gongs, it won the ultimate prize: the gallery bought an edition.   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003ETremblay, who has been working in the field for more than four decades and claims that each print can take up to four hours to produce explains that colour can fit into the print providing it doesn't take over.     \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E“A printer sees other things and can take it to a different experience.”   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E“Sometimes we are an interface with broader public. We reflect on what is working in the sales world and take this back to the artist.   \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E“We want to keep the artist energised by sales, and colour can sometimes do better in the market. We try different prints and different colours, but the artist always has the first right of refusal if they don't like it.”  \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EFor both the artist and the printer, it seems that the single most important thing right now is to get the stories out and get them “as close to the grandparents’ memories while (the grandparents) are still alive and still can.”  \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003ETo Tremblay, that is the greatest success. “It's a great moment to see this work exposed to a wider audience. The painting is a document forever.” \u003C/p\u003E\r\n","readMoreHeight":0,"richText":true,":type":"teq/components/editorial/editorial-description"},"spacer_1832719348_co_627676559":{"spacerType":"whitespace","paddingSize":"xxsmall",":type":"teq/components/spacer"},"editorial_descriptio":{"text":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cb\u003E/Ends\u003C/b\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\r\n\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EWord Count: 791\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EAuthor: Tourism and Events Queensland \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EUp to date as at: 06 July 2021\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThe copyright free story is supplied courtesy of Tourism and Events Queensland.
