Artist Statement
This work pays homage to the Great Western Woodlands—a vast, biodiverse ecosystem where every leaf, tree, and shadow plays a vital role in the whole. The singular leaflike form reflects nature’s collective rhythm. Its transparency and texture invite closer inspection, prompt a moment of pause, and remind us that beauty often hides in the overlooked.
The materials—glass, wood, and metal—are reclaimed and repurposed, reinforcing a commitment to sustainability and stewardship. As with all pieces in the Woodlands Series, this sculpture reflects the interdependence of earth, light, air, and time, as well as the quiet strength found in balance.
Perfect for Art collectors, nature lovers, or those seeking a meaningful and sustainable piece that reflects Australia’s unique landscape and ecological story.
