Cabrini Women’s Business, 2025
digital print on paper, framed
36 x 49 x 2 cm

This contemporary digital dot painting is inspired by my time at Cabrini Lisa Thurin’s Women’s Mental Health service, specifically by the group program “The Connection”.

It tells a story of our journey and struggles coming into the unit, what lead us here. In the centre of the painting is a meeting place of us women, sharing connection, learning and healing together, as well as the nurses and specialists who guide and teach us. Surrounded by fruits and plants, which represent skills and strategies we’ve learnt, thoughts and epiphanies, beautiful conversations we’ve shared. Some of these fruits represent the traumas and stories. The sun and rain representing the duality of our good and bad times, stars, resting places to sit and ground, to regulate the nervous system. Kangaroo, emu, and possum footprints which also represent journeys taken by different people. On the outside of the painting is the outside world and community, our friends and families and the other hundreds of connections we have that keep us strong and supported, and the opportunity to make hundreds more connections. Everyone is connected, everyone is welcome and everyone belongs.

This is almost 9 hours of work with over 27,000 brush strokes.
