Woven from the fallen limbs of Eucalypt and reclaimed threads of Copper, Curtain of Kin is infused with the properties of the materials from which it is made. Eucalypt - resilient, purifying, protector of space - offers herself as guardian and healer. Whilst Copper - feminine and fecund, conductor of energy both actual and metaphoric - balances yang with yin, amplifying and fortifying this cleansing, connective and curative container.

Here, Copper also represents the blood in our bodies and the sap of the trees - transporting minerals and nutrients; cleansing, healing, binding. Eucalypt branches, stripped of their fleshy bark, depict a skeleton, a succession of bones - structural and formative; enduring. By stepping into this veil of blood and bone, the artist invites you to enter a space in which to connect with one’s elemental ancestry of wood and metal, vegetal and mineral, your earthen Kin.
