Down South
"Down South" is a painting that not only captures the captivating beauty of the rocks and crashing waves in Albany, Western Australia, but also pays homage to the rich history and significance of the region.
Albany is historically significant as it is the oldest permanently settled town in Western Australia. The ancient rocks depicted in the artwork symbolize the timeless presence of the land, representing the millennia of geological formation.
I tried to capture the lack of harmony between the land and the sea, a theme that resonates strongly with me regarding the actual climate conditions. The crashing wave represents the ebb and flow of time, constantly shaping and reshaping the rugged coastline. The painting intends to serve as a visual narrative, reminding viewers of the historical significance and natural beauty of the region. It encourages reflection on the interconnectedness of human history, nature, and the eternal cycle of life.
