Arboretum
In my latest Arboretum series, the West Coast Forest stands as a living archive where time and memory intertwine. Here, the landscape is not merely observed; it remembers. Through the slow language of trees, each ancient sentinel acts as a storyteller, its roots tracing the past while its canopy filters the present through layers of light and loss.
Within these compositions, traces of light and ethereal orbs serve as vehicles—silent spirit guides that watch over the forest trails. These glints of colour are the captured pulse of human presence, lingering at the edges of the woods and illuminating the quiet resilience of a landscape that holds the memory of all who have, and will, pass through it.
In this duo exhibition Glint: Captured Memory we invite the viewer to listen for what endures. By merging the slow language of nature with these traces of light, we aim to map an internal terrain where physical landscape and memory converge to reveal the many layers of the human experience.
