‘Banksia River Land: Exploring Yallock-Bulluk Marine and Coastal Park’
5 – 27 April, 2025
“This collection of paintings reflects my time immersed in Yallock-Bulluk Marine and Coastal Park. Created mostly on-site along the Powlett River, within Banksia woodlands, grassy swamplands, and off the old rail trail. My practice involves clearing my mind to fully connect with my surroundings, embodying and expressing the energy and wildness of the landscape. Painting outdoors and being a part of moments such as storms rolling in, bring a sense of awe and interconnectedness, where the movement of clouds, wind, and birds heighten my connection to the earth and all living things.”
