Listening to Birdsong
Nyisztor Studio, Fremantle, WA, 23 October - 8 November 2026
Based on fragmented photographs,drawings and memories of walking through remnant bush and wetlands, these layered monoprints focus on the emotional resonance wrought by such chaotic landscapes. Urbanisation with its increasing encroachment on nature, makes these pockets of wilderness essential sanctuaries for birds, wildlife and us, providing a place of reflection on struggle and hope; beauty and decay. I print in my backyard studio surrounded by trees and birdsong. As I listen my delight turns to dread at the thought of their silencing through climate change and impending bird flu.
