Reclamation: Stories of Thrivival is an eclectic, evocative and unique collection of mixed media works by First Nations artist, Wallabindi.
The artist draws her inspiration from memories and reflections of her own lived experiences as well as those of her ancestors. This collection of works are statements of reclamation for the artist which, interwoven with the echoes of her ancestors, creates a multifaceted journey which oscillates dreamily between past, present and future.
Thrivival is a term that came to the artist strongly during the creation of this, her debut exhibition. For her, it encompasses the incredible strength, resilience, resourcefulness, love and creativity of the staunch matriarchy that she is descended from. In her awe of these past matriarchs, she has found much inspiration and, to her delight, glimmers of these qualities in herself. Sustainability in the form of reclaimed, recycled and upcycled materials features strongly in this exhibit as the artist's own passion for caring for Country.
