Shades of Ochre
It was only in April 2021 that Jade picked up the paint brush and started to produce this new style of artwork. Her dreaming is titled ‘Dreaming in my Grandmother’s Country’ which has been passed down to her by her Grandmother Barbara Weir. These paintings consist of loosely executed dots painted in linear patterns that resemble a carefully designed aerial view of her country ‘Atnwengerrp’.
This type of painting is very subtle in its method and appearance and one needs to search for the various motifs that Jade has incorporated in each piece. They are all titled “Dreaming in my Grandmother’s Country”, but each have slight differences and the different palettes illustrate the land at different seasons of the year.
Artworks such as Jade’s ensures the continuation of an ancient and rich cultural heritage whilst acknowledging the close bond still retained by the artist to her country.
“When I close my eyes, I see Atnwengerrp from an aerial view. Nourishing bush tucker, the songlines, sacred sites and deep red colours that evolve throughout the day. I project that into every dreaming I produce. Each piece has a deep connection to country and pays tribute to all family members who walked the land before us. It’s an honour and privilege to take what I’ve learnt from my elders onto canvas”.
