Buffel Grass Symphony Painting

“Buffel Grass Symphony” My paintings are informed by thorough research into the changing face of the landscape and the impact of climate change, introduction of weeds and non native fauna and flora. The signs of these impacts can be subtle and almost beautiful:
 the loss of the native Spinifex plants around Amoonguna in the Northern Territory, replaced with the introduced Buffel Grass has resulting in 95 % loss of biodiversity in the area. My work focuses on the change in the environment - thus raising the question, how do we respond emotionally? how do we respond practically to these challenges? It is this juxtaposition that she is most interested in, informed by psychology, politics, religion and science.
