1 of 1 2024 Charcoal and ash screenprinted onto handmade paper (recycled artworks, lakewater, foraged plant matter from site) This image was created following my residency on the Tasman Peninsula, during which I experienced a brush with death. When I returned home, I spent much of my time healing, and walking in the bush around my home. It was during these quiet encounters that I slowly captured this photograph, looking upward through the branches toward the sky. This period was deeply nourishing, and I gathered natural materials such as leaves, bark, and twigs, which later became part of the handmade paper. The image itself was developed with rainwater I collected during this time, along with caffenol. The resulting work sheds light on a profoundly healing period after a life-changing event.
