Sharon Lee TOGETHER
sharonleeartist.blogspot.com

A childhood on Bougainville, PNG, followed by a move to Queensland in 2000, has shaped Sharon’s profound appreciation for nature’s forms, lines, and colors.

 

In this body of works titled TOGETHER, Sharon uses environmental storytelling-combining birds and children-to question: When will we accept the symbiotic relationship between nature, humans, and the environs, and that we are all the same when threatened by catastrophic conditions?

 

Using photographs of her own children's bodies combined with birds, Sharon questions the deadly sins created by environmental greed, mismanagement, and ignorance. Insecticides, pesticides, deforestation, urban sprawl, mono-cultures, being just a few.
