Pingala Walsh - Digital Artist
Previously: Tarkine Dreaming for ABC Open
How can you capture the spirit of a place as magnificent as Tasmania's Tarkine wilderness?
For Pingala Walsh, weaving together elements that she has photographed and brought together to make an art work means getting intimately acquainted with the detail of the flora and fauna of a place.
This film is about an artists journey to interpret Tasmania's Tarkine - a place over-flowing with beauty and incredible detail as plants such as the Huon Pine, Myrtle and Sassafras all nestle together with countless mosses, lichens and fungi.
Pingala Walsh is an artist, a designer, a photographer and an illustrator. The piece she created in this video is called Tarkine Huon Dreaming for the Tarkine in Motion Project 2015, a creative exploration of this unprotected wilderness, produced with the Bob Brown Foundation.
Filmed, produced and edited by Lara van Raay - producer for ABC Open Southern Tasmania 2015
