Artists statement

We are living in a climate emergency. This work references the Black Summer Bushfires (2019-2020) and the devastating impacts upon habitat and wildlife, specifically the endangered Kangaroo Island Glossy Black Cockatoo.

Created with mixed media, including charcoal from the Black Summer fires. Wach piece feratures the charcoal as a potent reminder of the reality of the event.

This body of work acts as both a memorial, and a warning for the future.
