During the last two to three years, I have been on extensive camping holidays to Central Australia. It is a visually stunning landscape and one that is so different from my home state of Tasmania. These are some images that inspired my upcoming exhibition.
Spinifex grass, green dots, spikey.
White barked gum trees on ochre red background.
The lands dryness and the preciousness of water.
The surprise of thousands of pelicans on a vast inland lake.
The elegance and movement of large kangaroos, emus and brolgas.
The evidence of wind and water on sand, fossilised, creating rhythmic ripples.
