#Repost @cairnsartgallery with @make_repost ・・・ Carmichael’s basket is woven with ungaire (fresh water swamp reed) from Minjerribah and shells from Quandamooka – yoolooburabee people of the sand and seas. The basket holds and carries memories of loved ones. Each stitch and strand is a weave of healing and nurturing. By weaving with living material of country and drawing upon generational knowledge, this installation is a reminder that the spirit of people always will be with place - Freja Carmichael. ​ 📷 ​Elisa Jane CARMICHAEL, Jarah 2021, ungaire and shells.
