About the Artwork

Every day, I walk beside Sydney Harbour, exploring its undulating rock forms. To make this work, I traced a rock face near the Harbour and used this profile drawing to create a template. I traced the template over and over, using my breath as a metronome to guide each line. The graphite profile works are a meditation on time, the geological time embedded in the Australian landscape, the metre of my body through my breath, the millennia it takes the medium graphite to metamorphose in nature and the brief time I spent drawing. The graphite profile works are a way of sitting with time.
