My installation,
‘Water Falls’ opened last Friday night.
There were many young faces in the
crowd…Joe, Tyla, Sam. It was
great to catch up with them. In the two years since they left Bundaberg
they have each matured in so many ways…both in their creative pursuits and also in their personal development. It is just wonderful to witness that. Thankyou Staff of Bundaberg Regional Art
Gallery, (especially Trudie), for your assistance. And thankyou all for kind words. A special
My installation 'Water Falls' is made of 12 or so bridal veils.
I like to collect the veils as they are beautiful and have an air of mystery about them. They also carry with them a sense of innocence, promise and good fortune. But veils hide, as well as reveal.
Veils have a gentle and elegant aspect. Their fall to the ground mimics a real waterfall.
This is why I was interested to create the 'Water Falls' installation.
Although inspired by the recent floods in Bundaberg, it explores the more gentle, forgiving and nurturing aspects of water.
