Feed on prey passing beetles other spider when they outdoors toilets few people got bitten by this
spider. You get a headache and cramps there is no need to panic only swelling but get treatment quick
and fast never use your hands when hiding something under a hole pipe that’s where they hide. The only
thing I love about red backs is their webs just like art; the web pattern.
Purlkartu (Spider) is a brave foray into technologically assisted printmaking. His painted bull skull has been scanned, modelled and 3D printed with his original markings forming an embossed layer on the surface. Prince then finishes the sculpture with acrylic paint retracing some of his marks and inventing others. By embracing futuristic technology Prince challenges traditional notions of Indigenous painting.
