Heritage II Print

I have been fortunate to work closely with the ANMM to provide a stimulating contemporary platform to engage the wider community and bring attention to a chapter of Australia’s maritime history. The early Australian pearling industry had a dark and often regrettable past but was also important for the cultural diversity it brought to Australian shores as well as the economic influence it had. The extreme conditions of the workers, the equipment they used along with the beauty and deadly lure of the pearl and the environment that produces them, have been the main influencing force in creating this body of work. 'I was moved by the inherent risks facing those early Australian diving pioneers in the day to day of their jobs. I wanted to convey some of the confusion, disorientation but also beauty they faced.'
