The bush is often portrayed as a quiet, still, place, when in reality, it’s dynamic, noisy, colourful, and constantly changing.
The way that light interplays with all that can be seen in the forest presented me with an opportunity to capture and see lines, shape, colour, and textures to show a quite different reality.
This series, titled ‘Bush Walk’ begins as I’m ‘Exploring the Margins, looking inward. Walking further I’ve found myself ‘Immersed in the Re-imagined’ landscape, observing how the light has ‘Painted the Jarrah’, before stepping back ‘Into the Light’ and the familiar.
These abstract painterly works appear to blur the features we typically associate with the bush, but I find they bring the vertical lines of tree trunks into sharp focus.
Each one beautifully captures and reflects the light very differently from the norm, producing a strong contrast against the very recognizable and stunning colours we associate with the Australian bush.
