| Traces of a song in Mulberry Musings 2018 Etching /collograph 38 x 28cm Inkmasters 4TH Biennale Print Exhibition Tanks Arts Centre Cairns 27 July-19 August 2018  Artist Statement |
My arts practice
is inspired by the speculative intersections and connections of humanity,
together with the paradoxes of difference between each other and being alone,
and how it manifests through language, culture and music
I aim to create
poetic relationships between heaviness and lightness, between the language of
the materials and forms.
Lately I have
become intrigued with the rhizomatic model of Giles Deleuzian ‘s philosophy. A
philosophy which opens new ways of “seeing” the landscape and life, suggesting
there are multiple and shifting points of connection across time and space.
Contemplating
these modes of inquiry in Interconnected
Precious Moments Dreaming I seek to express fleeting
moments captured in the continuous flow of changes.
Inside/Out Mapping Spiritual Journeys Inkmasters Collaborative Print Project I was fortunate to be included in the Launch Inkfest 2018 Tanks 4 Cairns 27 July-19 August 2018  Artist Statement
My work was inspired
by Bill Neidjie’s wonderfully informative book Story about Feeling.
Bill Neidjie was one
of the remarkable elders who in the earlier part of the 21st century
broke with tradition to mediate Aboriginal knowledges for a broader audience,
primarily for the younger indigenous generation, however also for balanda or
non-indigenous people.
I was fascinated to
read of the differences of the inner or sacred and the outer or esoteric
aspects of their life and how it influences their customs and rituals and permeates
their respect and feeling for country and all living things, Echoing Feelings towards
Harmony.
