Tracing the Vanishing
'Tracing the Vanishing' was my solo exhibition at West End Art Space in Melbourne, 23 August - 9 September 2023. Exploring the monoprint and layered bushland as evocation, this body of work portrays the importance of landscape in our lives - how it mirrors our thoughts and moods; how it provides beauty and solace; and how it’s destruction can speak to our personal loss. My inspiration comes from Baigup Wetlands on the Swan Riverfloodplain – a place of mutable shadows, light and reflections. It possesses a haunting beauty and timelessness, compelling me to pause and reflect on all that we have and all that we stand to lose.
