Artist’s Statement:
‘Forestories’ documents the landscape over time with the process of layering paint to reference the paradigm of time passing. The seasons moving through the forest build a conversation of colour and form, revealing some skeletal trees within their midst. Environmental fragility is a reality we are now facing in our W.A. southwest forests, the drying climate is causing many species to die on their granite foundations.
