For hundreds of thousands of years during the Stone Age, the artefacts that the ancestors created from stone, antler & ivory were important for their survival, but they also provided a means of artistic expression. Long ignored for far too long, this Stone Age portable rock art, as it is known today, needs to be recognised for its cultural & aesthetic value. This will help remove the stigma of our Stone Age forebears as being primitive, club-wielding brutes without wit or fantasy. Many of the ancestors were skilled artists who expressed themselves through various mediums. They used expressionism, cubism, art nouveau & art deco, long before it was reinvented in the 19th century & they used many of these artforms & more to express their beliefs in a universal deity represented by reverence toward the mammoth & the giant forest elephant. While outlining Stone Age rock art as a whole, this work delves into the lives, loves & fantasies of our predecessors, lighting up the night sky in the world of mysteries as they interpreted the Heavens.
