Boundaries is a work that uses hand made watercolour paint derived from an ironbark tree. The dark black tones are achieved through introducing iron sulphate, a compound which reacts with the gallic acid found in the bark. A common issue encountered by foragers in Newcastle is the pressence of heavy metals in our soil- a by product of our industrial past with BHP. Boundaries explores the blurry lines between us, our environment and the impact we have on eachother.
