This work titled Clashing of Seasons reflects Tahnee Day’s deep observation of the natural world and its vulnerability to environmental change. In this painting, she explores how shifting seasons affect the flora, fauna, and the lives of animals across Country. The work embodies her ongoing engagement with Country, portraying its landscapes and inhabitants with precision, care, and cultural awareness.

Tahnee often depicts animals and Country in detailed forms, using them as conduits to explore the relationships between people, place, and the cycles of nature. In Clashing of Seasons, her signature style, intricate line work, patterned textures, and blocked forms-creates a rhythm across the canvas, reflecting both the harmony and tension present in the natural environment. Each line and form is intentional, revealing the interconnections between plants, animals, and the shifting seasons that sustain life.

Tahnee says: “This painting is about the clashing of seasons and how that has affected not only the flora and fauna but also the animals. It is a way for me to honour Country and all its beings, to show the delicate balance and resilience of life, and to reflect on how changes to our environment impact everything around us.”

Through her meticulous detailing and expressive forms of gold, Clashing of Seasons celebrates the beauty, fragility, and continued spirit of Country, its creatures, and its cycles.
