Collecting: plants & plant carers of Lutruwita/Tasmania

As part of my residency (August 2025) at the Artist Cottage, Salamanca Arts Centre, I invite local Tasmanians to share their special plants. Each plant carries a story, a connection to place, or memory. Through your contributions, I aim to create a new collection of drawings, honouring both the flora and personal narratives intertwined with them.

You can participate by:

Sending a photo and details of your favourite plant via the form below

Donating plant sample or cutting (contact me to arrange)

SUBMIT A PHOTO OF YOUR SPECIAL PLANT

seeking: Lutruwita/Tasmania plant carers

In the continuation of my previous project, Plant Carers, I am reaching out to the community of Lutruwita/Tasmania who nurture plants. I am eager to connect with individuals engaged in plant conservation, activism and research.

Typically, I meet people, listening to their stories, and capture the essence of their work through photographs of their hands in action. These images serve as the basis for my drawings.

I have previously created a large body of work including over 50 South Australian Plant Carers, through which I celebrate and honour the vital role that these individuals play in preserving the enduring legacy of our local ecosystems.  

If you are one of these dedicated people or know someone who is, please fill in the form below:
