‘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.
I made a monotype of the seaweed in the bottom section, then added abstract bushland and cliffs in acrylic paint. The strip of copper leaf signifies the different realms, above and below the surface. There is so much going on underneath which you’re acutely aware of when you dive under and start exploring. It seems to just bring everything into perspective.
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?
The beach where I swim and collect my seaweed is only 500m from a treated ocean outfall. It is abundant with life, and seeps into my arts practice on a deep level.
