While working on the Interconnected Project, I had the opportunity to travel to Brisbane and present at the Women inLeadership conference. During my trip, I intentionally stayed at a beautiful hotel right next to the Brisbane Botanical Gardens. I always make a point of visiting the botanical gardens in every city I travel to. I feel that it gives me a deeper understanding of place and connection to the land.
In Brisbane’s botanical gardens, I was blown away by these ancient and majestic banyan trees, they are just magnificent in every way. I visited them every day and this gave me a way of balancing out the bustle of the city and being in the conference venue with no daylight. I would recenter and ground myself amongst these majestic trees.
It was upon returning from this trip that I felt a big shift in my energy and artistic practice. I felt a pull to go even deeper. Around the same time, I discovered “ The Frequency of Fabric” a study by Dr Heidi Yellen who discovered the human body has a signature frequency of 110 mHz (like organic cotton) but some fabrics can drain our fabric by being of a lower frequency, like wool that wool vibrates at an astonishingly high frequency, 5000mHz -Talk about high vibe!
This confirmed what I already knew intuitively: that wool was the textile that was most conducive to the work that I aspire to birth into the world: creating pieces that would not only looked elegant and warm, but also make people FEEL and therefore behave in a more conscious way.
From that moment, all the pieces started to fall into place. One day, I was walking here in North East Arnhem and came across a really long piece of wood that was just lying there next to the path. It felt like Nature was calling to me “hey, do you want to play?” I was really excited but had to figure out the logistics of getting this piece of timber back to my studio- it was nearly 7m long and it was really heavy! I had to cut it down but kept one section as long as I could handle and it fit perfectly along my studio wall- reaching nearly 3m long.
This piece became the support for what was to become Mother Tree over the course of 4 or 5 months. Most mornings, I went on a long walk and spent time observing the banyan trees around town. I’d sit and look at how the light moved through them, how all the branches had grown and I tried too imagine how many decades they had gathered the wisdom of the land into their roots and into their branches.
The creative process was one of deep surrender and trust, I dropped out of my head and let my heart lead the way and my hands just knew how to weave and interconnect the different chunky strands of felted wool. It wasn’t planned, it simply unfolded and was the most divine and beautiful process.
I noticed during the process of creating Mother Tree that my dog loved lying beneath her and when my kids got upset, they would snuggle up in the corner of my studio next to her. When visitors came, they would often stop and stare and want to just be in the space. Friends and clients would come into my studio and would open up and share vulnerably what they were experiencing and then find the courage to take the next empowered step on their own journey. I heard time and time again how Mother Tree made them feel calm and safe, and from that space, they were able to show up at their best.
To be honest, the creative process in itself was so rewarding and fulfilling, but then discovering that the piece had the impact that I hoped and desired it would have, well that was just the cherry on top.
I really believe that we underestimate the power of art. By locking it away in museums and having big signs that say “don’t touch”, we are robbing ourselves of the potency of the medicine that art can give us
I envision a world where we value creativity and integrate art into all living spaces. I believe we would see a big shift in the way we interact in work places, public places as well as residential homes if we were to prioritise the presence of vibrational artworks and create spaces around art instead of using it as a simple accessory.
The name “Mother Tree” was inspired by the work of Suzanne Simard. who researched and identified the interconnection and complexity of plant communication.
This large scale installation is an exploration of how spaces can be positively influenced by Vibrational Art.
