FROM CLOVER TO PELÉ

 

Recently landed: From Clover to Pelé

As work continues on the details of our collage, The remaking of things, we take a moment to look back at those in our foster care in 2022; those who passed away; those who stayed for a short visit; those we knew briefly: thank-you. From Clover and Atlas at the beginning of the year that was to Fred and Pelé (currently in care), we owe so much to them. They’ve taught us so much. And they all feature in our collage in one way or another.

Continuing reading on Marginalia.

To those we’ve cared for and since released, like Peanut the Bush rat (Rattus fuscipes) pup: travel well.

It was such a joy to get to know him, and learn how to care for him, with the help of Healesville Sanctuary. His appearance changed so much while in care, such is their cycle so different to our own. But releasing him was the sweetest experience, by far.

I have been collaborating with Louise Jennison since 1999, making artists’ books, collages, large-scale installations, prints, drawings, zines, and various tales. Besotted still, it appears, with paper for its adaptable, concealable, revealing nature, we use an armoury of play, the poetic and familiar too, with the intention of luring you into our A(rtists’ books) to Z(ines).

As artists and wildlife carers, our practice frequently concerns the natural world, addressing themes of conservation and biodiversity. Our home-based studio is also home to our wildlife shelter, Tiny but Wild.

I collage with words about dance for Fjord Review.
