A pressing matter

2021 - 192 x 114cm
​Old Wooden Bed Blanket Used as an Ironing Blanket, Embroidery Cotton Threads, Hand Embroidered

This is a diary of my concerns and understandings about the escalating negative impacts of climate warming nationally, and in particular in the Wimmera in north west Victoria, My work is headlined with the fragmented remnants of the words, climate change.  Rising temperatures and less precipitation are having a devastating effect on Australian flora and fauna, as predicted by scientific research.  
The faded and threadbare Australian made blanket, which has been subjected to extreme heat for decades when it was used as an ironing blanket, is a suitable analogy for the collapse of the environment.
