I have just delivered a series of works as part of the Cooks Hill Galleries' 40th Anniversary exhibition this month.
This series of altered prints extend the cave and rhizome motifs present in my work, and also explore themes of memory and associations with place. The works visually connect Jenolan Caves sites in 1889 and 1989 through the use of images taken from Samuel Cook’s 1889 publication: 'The Jenolan Caves: an excursion in Australian wonderland’ Illustrated with ... plates and a map’, juxtaposed with the abstracted memory of personal excursions over a century later.
