I’ve always preferred wide open vistas. Moving into a studio surrounded by National Park forced me to contemplate going into the understory and out of my comfort zone, it triggered nostalgia for the bush and trepidation for the future of our forests. It’s been an interesting and challenging process, learning about trees and working out how I wanted to represent all sorts of sensations, memories and symbolism I found in the shadows.
The result is a body of work called ‘Understory’ and you’re warmly invited to the opening in just under two weeks at Saint Cloche in Paddington. I'll also be at the gallery on Saturday 16th June 11am - 2pm for a drop in and 'meet the artist' event, I would love to welcome you there.
Thank you for your continued interest in my artmaking.
