Original Work on Paper- The Gum Leaf in the Rock Pool

$395.00

cyanotype (sunprint) on 400gsm recycled cotton rag paper

30cm x 42 cm (A3)

The Cyanotype process is an alternative photographic process invented in the 18th century . I placed a Leaf onto recycled paper painted with the photo sensitive cyanotype chemistry. The paper turns a beautiful blue, and the spirit of the plant is captured. Plant pigments from Eucalypts (gum leaves) are painted and poured around the blue so as to imitate and celebrate the colours of the sea and coastline in my favourite places. From the oranges and reds of the rock pools and cliffs to the sparkling blues of the sea and sky. Weaving the tragic tale of sea life in the plastic age. Lamenting the impact of marine debris upon remote coastal communities and landscapes .

This is an original , one of a kind artwork on archival, recycled, hand made paper. The size is indicative as there are some beautiful irregularities due to the hand made nature of the paper. This work is unframed.

 I acknowledge the Larrakia People traditional custodians of the land on which I create, live and work in Garramilla (Darwin), and pay my respects to their Elders past, present & emerging.
