An Antipodean icon, Reg Mombassa—also known as Chris O’Doherty—occupies a rare cultural space, equally influential as artist, musician and designer. One of Australia’s most collected and instantly recognisable contemporary figures, his work is worn, loved and collected by audiences ranging from Patrick White to Elton John.

In this work depicting two dogs, Mombassa’s trademark humour does the heavy lifting. With a wink rather than a wagging finger, Mombassa creates a scene that is humorous in its absurdity, both shocking our sensibilities and inviting us to laugh. For collectors of contemporary Australian art, Mombassa is not one to miss.
