Artist statement
This work on recycled cardboard attempts to capture the zeitgeist of the Australian summer of 2019-2020: I was in New Zealand in December and saw the sky’s light turn yellow. I saw a headline from an online article in Scientific American that resonated with what I was feeling. Whilst much of the impact of drought and fire has occurred in the eastern states, the fine suspended particulates from the fires have dispersed eastward around the world and back again.
