their phenology, where seasonal timing of events shifts. On a small Island this can include rain fall changes, and sea waters rising affecting the island’s unique ecology. Let’s closely consider the value of healing plants, helping to support and preserve traditional knowledge, natural environments and biodiversity.

Artworks Centella asiatica… anti-inflammatory… is from the ‘Medicinal Plant Cycles’ series created during my Phd studio research. This body of work focuses on local Australian healing plants, significant to the Quandamooka Peoples of Minjerribah/North Stradbroke Island. The Island is located 27 km East of Brisbane in Quandamooka country (Moreton Bay). The flora I used to create the work was, and in some instances still is, used for healing. Centella asiatica is also known as pennywort, and as an asthma plant.
