Amelia Batchelor

About the work:
This work symbolises a combo of stately Red Tailed Black Cockatoos, perched, prospecting, and surveying a landscape. The inevitability of nature finding its way with challenges of habitat depletion and the survival of species. Each piece illustrates and embodies the struggle, the rebuilding and finding of changed perspectives, to become resilient.

About the artist:
Within Amelia’s practice, she has an obsessive need to gather and document histories, anatomy, traces of life and in particular, the evidence of life lived in nature. The resulting accumulation of ‘stuff’ provides her endless opportunities for artistic speculation and shared appreciation.

Dave Hickson

About the work:
The work depicts a pair of Plovers (Masked Lapwings). Following unprecedented flooding in our region a pair of plovers nesting beside the local canal, squawked and flapped around in the night as the rising flood water engulfed their eggs. A microcosm of a disaster that unfolded in our region. We need to do all we can to prevent the worst extremes of climate.

About the artist:
Dave majored in sculpture at the National Art School in Sydney, winning the Julian Beaumont Sculpture Prize in 2002, and graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts with Honours in Sculpture in 2003. In 2005 he completed a Graduate Diploma in Education at the University of Technology in Sydney (UTS) and is now a part time sculpture teacher at TAFE NSW campuses in the Northern Rivers. He primarily works from his studio in Ocean Shores.
