‘Ever Evers’ Installation view 2022 Bunbury regional Art Gallery. I asked to borrow the shell dolls for the installation but was advised they were too fragile to move. So I made them on 300gsm paper. The image on the base of the plinth is a drawn version of the Bellviews carpet. I believe the carpet was a British import to WA from the late 1880’s to 1940’s.
‘The small deaths ‘ features the small whaler shark located in the middle of the Bellview Collection. ‘The islands many, the fathoms deep, no names ‘ came from the many times and places recorded on the classification cards next to the shells and specimens displayed. The desire to collect and the privacy of collecting wrapped up in one.
