Text for, L'animale, shortlisted for Heysen Prize for Landscape 2024

Highway one links Tarndanya and Naarm, passing through a variety of landscapes, but one constant feature is the ancient Grass tree that epitomises the Australian bush – they are survivors that have adapted to the fire cycles of this land. L’animale celebrates the Australian landscape – the bronze Grass tree spikes re-colonise the European floral motifs on the wooden table base.
