Weaving the Kimberley   I spent ten days in the Kimberley region soaking up stories, atmospheres and colours. I saw apparitions, willy willies, fossils and the Bee-Eaters iridescent wings. I marveled at the tangled radial roots systems of the mangroves and the rich red earth. I laughed with old friends and strengthened new ones.    I then came back to Melbourne and started to paint and weave. Using the connecting roots of the mangrove as a metaphor, the warp and weft threads came to symbolize the various threads of my Kimberley experience. Using  Adobe Photoshop®  allowed me to layer these moments and in doing so, reflect upon the fluid nature of time and memory.
