In 2022 Binna Burra Lodge invited me to create my signature biochrome images on the Binna Burra Cultural Landscape, as the inaugural Artist-in-Residence (AiR) in the legacy of Vida Lahey, a prominent Queensland artist and educator (1882 – 1968), and I was greatly honoured to receive this opportunity.
I created this work during the residency as part of my 'Gondwanan Biochromes' series of rainforest flora, with focus on Gondwanan lineage plants, including the Mountain Banksia, which is also a healing plant.
Located on the Yugambeh language groups’ country, in the World Heritage area of Woonoongoora / Lamington National Park in Queensland - Binna Burra allows visitors to experience unique flora, of which ancestral lineages go back to Gondwanaland millions of years ago.
