SURVEY
This ongoing series documents the changing climate and immense nature surrounding the Blue Mountains and Wollemi National Parks in New South Wales, Australia. Inspired from an artist residency at Bilpin International Grounds for Creative Initiatives (BigCi) from October - December 2019, I witnessed a land and people's incredible capacity for renewal and growth, strength and resilience in the wake of natural disaster.
These works serve as a document, a still moment of preservation as the Gospers Mountain fire spread southwest. During six short weeks, the fire grew from 20,000-300,000 hectares. These are the days before the fire. The days we waited and the world we captured. It is a portrait of a landscape forever changed.
