2022 | South West Art Now (SWAN)

Bunbury Regional Art Gallery. The SWAN 2022 is a prestigious art exhibition, showcasing the latest contemporary art from around the South West Region.

ARTIST STATEMENT

"I see lino scraps as poetry. These colourful patterns speak to a life lived. They express a rhythmic unfolding of childhood memory, of bedrooms and kitchens, and the special rooms of the home, of celebration and family time with relatives. Such positive childhood memories. The reverse of those scraps, the underneath, the hidden side reveals the converse of that happy memory. They express the tremendous upheaval and grief of family tragedy. They are the colours of the Pilbara landscape. There is a need in me to stitch these poems, to patch and mend, and to heal the wound and the land." - Helen Seiver
