“A Place of Rest”
Artist Statement
This painting first came to me in a dream- a Moodjar tree bathed in golden light, illuminating the land like a sacred beacon. Moved by this vision, I set out on a creative pilgrimage, searching for a place where the light revealed the landscape’s quiet divinity.
Guided by the memory of my dream and a compilation of reference images, I reverse-engineered the scene onto canvas. The Moodjar holds deep spiritual significance in Indigenous culture, revered as a bridge between worlds for passing spirits.
This work is both a vision and a devotion, an homage to the land’s sacred presence.
