Paint Party Description:
This 2 hour paint party is aimed at creating art works for our upcoming annual exhibition entitled: Recovery, a theme chosen to help process/reflect upon the impacts and opportunities that COVID19 presented to, and continues to present to the global population.
The image is inspired by a photo taken in 2020 whilst camping in an area where the annual fires had been through. Gum nuts have adapted to deal with extreme events such as bush fires where the wooden capsules burst open and release seeds from within. These germinate in the favourable ashen earth where they fall. A possible a metaphor for out of devastation comes opportunities for regrowth, regeneration and recovery.
