“Since coming to live in Tasmania in mid-2020, I am heeding the call to be in forests. I walk them near my home and I paddle along their shore lines, sometimes along rivers and into the wilderness that harbours rare and ancient trees. I am but a beginner student, pondering the secrets of such places. I am awed by their ancient majesty and deeply held history.

And I know of threats to these places, ones that grow from modern human habitation and a new culture unschooled in the nurture of such holy spaces. The forest has no voice that we have learned to hear and understand. It can be but still. These woodblock prints are the first I’ve made since coming here and the first in a series to help me understand the fragility and melancholic beauty of what we may well lose.”
