Statement:
This painting represents visual details of natural and built features observed on a walk beginning in Bonython Park/ Park 27: Tulya Wardli, meaning ‘police home’, bounded by North Terrace, Port Road, and Karrawirra Parri.Walking offers a sense of freedom and offers respite from everyday stresses and the gravity of current contemporary issues. Recording the details observed while walking is a reminder to be present and connected to place as well as a strategy for maintaining mental health through mindfulness.
