Title of Artwork: Against the Elements, Part 3
Year: 2022
Collection: Marrunga Yubaa (Sweet Rain)
I pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging and acknowledge the traditional owners of this land on which I was born and raised.
The Sweet Rain series is designed to ignite imagination and celebrate life. It signifies a raindrop’s journey from the clouds to the earth and its importance to the land and our lives. The ancient traditional Aboriginal symbol of rain is portrayed through my own contemporary artistic lens. I have designed the symbol to have a cup of delicate dots that surround just the bottom of each coloured stroke, rather than a continuous line. The colour of each drop signifies part of my life story, applied in layers of fine art strokes.
The inspiration for my art comes from within. My work portrays thoughts and feelings that have been waiting in my heart and mind to be revealed.
Have you ever been caught in a rainstorm that feels like the rain is coming in sideways and there is no escape? This is very much how I view my life at times. No matter how hard I try to get through, sometimes things just keep going sideways.
Even though the impact of the weather can be harsh, finding an inner strength pushes me through. Pushes me through the toughest of elements. A quote by – Vivian Greene reads, “life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass… it's about learning to dance in the rain.”
In my life I spent a lot of time waiting for the storm to pass, until finally I learnt to dance in the rain and from this I now see that clouds are not always dark. There is colour in almost anything if you take the time to really look beyond.
In this artwork, I have explored a soft colour palette to take you on a journey where you decide what colours your clouds are and what colour the rain should be that follows.
I hope this story inspires you to expect and accept change, that you are strong to endure so much. I hope you see an amazing colourful world.
