Serpent GT is an important work in the Rodney Sayers' ongoing study into the influence of popular culture on his own practice. The sea serpent is a common theme in his work, and the GT in the title stands for Gran Transformation, but also refers to the BMW Gran Turismo. The artist reconsiders Nuu-chah-nulth carving traditions and paints the serpent as though it were a street rod with sleek, brilliant colours and a racing stripe.

This work earned Rodney Sayers a finalist placing in the 2020 Salt Spring National Art Prize.
