The Myth of the Nagas in the Realm of the Rainbow Serpents

Bagmati River, Kathmandu Valley

It has to be a story of the land.

Land that tells the story of life.

Life that inspires the spirit.

Spirit that tells the story of land.



Sitting in front of a fireplace we enjoy the circle of flames and talk about the art of making fire. How humans have used and abused the power of fire. These thoughts guide us to the stories that inspire the spiritual and physical well being of the land and its peoples. Fireside stories that were told time and time again all around the world, keeping the delicate balance of life on Earth.


Perhaps she will come

again when the sprits of

men and the spirit of this

land are once more

together as one

We were introduced to the Aboriginal myth of the Rainbow Serpent by Gauri N. Rimal. When he visited the Myth of the Nagas exhibition, the parallels between the two legends struck him immediately and he shared with us a beautiful catalogue about the Rainbow Serpent, that he had acquired while visiting the Australian pavilion at World Expo 1988 where he attended a theatre presentation of The Rainbow Serpent by Brisbane artists Oodgeroo Noonuccal and Kabul Oodgeroo Noonuccal. We envisioned an ecological artwork that would highlight the similarities between the nagas and the rainbow serpent as they relate to the revitalization of nature and culture.
