ESPECIALLY FOR YOU

Our new online viewing space, featuring variations of our original works on paper and large scale collages in a different format: a continuous digital reel.

We have created a new, second site. A space, like a gallery, and not a gallery. A space where we can show you our work, up close. A .space with Greater gliders, and familiar faces.

And, in time, a space where there will be new things too, created in 2020’s isolation.

Dive in, friends, or should that be, spool on, and bring things closer. To REEL!

In one sense, our walks along the bending paths by the river led us to create REEL. We’ve been spending a lot of time looking, being attentive, finding patterns, weaving lines, step by step. And REEL is no different to us. Perhaps it will be a walk for you as well.

Finding the familiar silhouette of a Greater glider (Petauroides volans), also listed as a “Black flying opossum” in the Journal of a Voyage to New South Wales: With Sixty-five Plates of Non Descript Animals, Birds, Lizards, Serpents, Curious Cones of Trees, and Other Natural Productions, on a tree trunk, these moments of calm and green and attention are important to us. They afford restoration and space to the general blur of hours, days, weeks no longer punctuated by dance, family, and friends, spinning close IRL. A gift to counter the loss; learning from nature as opposed to learning about nature. Reconnecting with nature, checking in, as citizen conservationists, on the sleeping colony of bats, sighting kangaroos, hearing ducks fly over our heads, has been the balm to the domestic background of days, the mutation of ‘how we culture’ in a pandemic, the worry that we, as a society, are focusing on the effect and not addressing the cause.

Please enjoy your walk through REEL.
