In the 1980 and 1990s we lost our seaweed. Around 70km of the Sydney coastline was denuded of Crayweed, where crayfish and abalone hide. Slowly but surely with a lot of hard work, it is being replanted. We no longer pump raw sewage into our ocean outfalls, and the seaweed is growing. Are we learning from our mistakes?
‘What’s Past is Prologue’ was the brief given to me as one of 10 artists selected for a group show at the Basil Sellers Exhibition Centre, opening May 17th 2025 in Moruya, NSW, Australia.
The beach where I swim and collect my seaweed is only 500m from a treated ocean outfalls. It is abundant with life, and seeps into my arts practice on a deep level. I made a monotype of the seaweed, then made it all but disappear with overpainting, then brought it back to life layer upon layer. Then the marine life came along in the final layer of silver leaf.
