Wall Story

Height 1470mm, Width 440mm, Weight 1100g (est)

Medium - Australian recycled pure uncoated copper with beads from discarded necklaces along with vintage ceramic beads handmade from Kilimanjaro and other shells and pieces found.

Inspired by our beautiful barrier reef, this is a Wall Story. The Reef is essential 'Aussie', yet few of us spend much time there. After flying over the barrier reef many years ago, the artist has searched for the colours that best reflect her memories, watery blues, deep blues, and greens along with sandy colouring and blue for the sky.
