AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Enjoying a cool evening with his family at Darwin's wharf, Lockwood's attention is drawn to a man gazing fixedly out to sea, with a crude raft in the water below him. The next evening the man is there again, gazing just as intently at the horizon. Lockwood describes his observation of the remarkable Ian Fairweather, and the ambitious raft journey to East Timor the eccentric artist embarked on shortly thereafter.
