Hercate
Ceramic
$2500
Hecate is not a character her ally associated with a hero’s journey but in this case it feels somehow heroic to have sent her back into the fire in search for treasure.
I’m happy, relieved and in awe of this process of ceramic art as there is never any certainty of what will happen.

Shaped through a passage of time, ebbs and flows, highs and lows, storms and calm waters, turmoil and stability.
Living on the coast of NSW, my practice is influenced by the coast and landscape. By painting the landscape, I have nurtured my sense of place in my new home surrounds. Each painting builds upon the last, relying less on taken images and more on felt experiences and connections. Imagination and heart work together to create a new depth to my practice creating a metaphor for the challenges we face and the push and pull between resilience and vulnerability.

Wollumbin Dreaming:
The sacred men's site emerges from the earth. It serves as a gateway to the Dreamtime, a sacred realm where the
spirits of ancestors still roam. The use of ochres depicts the site's timeless significance, revealing it as a sanctuary
where we find connection and guidance.

As the whales head south with their calves the mothers stick close to the coastline, teaching their babies about the
coastal habitat. Spring is well on the way, the days are getting longer, the Black cockatoos begin to build in numbers as the wattle and the T.tree bloom.
Just before the sun appears over the horizon the work takes on a golden sheen.

Description
Here is the definitive guide to Australian Indigenous architecture, comprehensively updated to showcase the flourishing Indigenous design practices reshaping Australia’s architectural landscape.
The award-winning Gunyah Goondie + Wurley: The Aboriginal Architecture of Australia is the only continental survey of this country’s First Nations’ innovative architecture. It explores the range and complexity of Indigenous-designed structures and spaces, from minimalist shelters to semi-permanent houses and villages, debunking false perceptions of early Aboriginal constructions and settlements.
Built on decades of research and field work and richly illustrated with rare photographs, Gunyah Goondie + Wurley offers insight into the lifestyles and cultural heritage of Australia’s Indigenous peoples, and how they combine to have a dynamic influence on this country.
‘Among Australia’s great ethnographers, from Elkin to Merlan, Stanner to Sutton, Paul Memmott’s long work with the great tribes of the Carpentarian gulf, and in particular his work on the ethnography of domicile and habitat in Australia, is a monumental achievement for which we can only express great esteem and gratitude.’
– Noel Pearson
‘Anyone still thinking that terra nullius describes pre-colonial Australia should read this book. There are words and images here that should stop Australians in their tracks. Your country is a rich one, Australia, please learn her story, learn to love her.’
– Bruce Pascoe
‘Ingenious insights into Aboriginal space, place and design.’
– Jackie Huggins
‘An architecture which was invisible to white invaders turns out to be as complex as the religious laws and kinship rules of the society that produced it. I thoroughly enjoyed it.’
– Peter Carey
‘This book should be the prescribed reference work for all involved in town planning, civil construction and especially housing and accommodation involving Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents.’
– Marcia Langton
