This year TRAILS finalists included artists from across Australia. The works reflected a range of media, techniques and experience, providing viewers with a broad spectrum from which to cast their People's Choice vote.
Dazed crayfish portraying the disturbing impact of sound waves on marine life. The seismic airguns disrupt the sacred balance of Gunditijmara's land and sea. I created this sculpture weaving ghostnet fibres over a wire armature. Symbolising the imbalance of the cray's righting reflex with the imbalance to our marine environment.
Exhibited at Voyage Surf, Ski & Skate, 2024
Held on the lands of the Gunditjmara people, we wish to acknowledge them as the Traditional Owners and we pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
