Drought and inappropriate farming practices meant that many of these properties failed. The discarded tin cans become "metaphors for the harshness of the climate, the lack of water, the lack of sustainability." - Interview, 04.11.11. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1497942359105-96QF0ZX3CC5KINGUKSO0/Absence_is_presence_09.jpg Absence is presence Artist Kim Williams at her home in Port Kembla, NSW 2010, with a mixed media work titled 'Channel Country #1.' Says Kim, "the drought has had a big influence on my work in the past couple of years – not just my direct experience of drought and seeing the effect of the drought on rural areas, but also the political ramifications of drought and its prominent place in our national story at present." - Interview 11.03.2010. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1497942355516-K6NTCLVH1XJMON3RXJ5D/Absence_is_presence_10.jpg Absence is presence Artist Paul Lambeth, Ballarat, VIC, 2009, with his series 'If God is a place, then we are lost.' Paul describes this body of work as "...non-specific, meaning that they're not about a place or any...grand landscape vista but more about just using colour and shape, the formal elements of painting to evoke dry land." - Interview 10.03.09. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1497942361471-QYR5XXOO69NH0P6F98UQ/Absence_is_presence_11.jpg Absence is presence Artist Denise James at Lambert's Swamp, Merbein, VIC, 2010 with her artwork entitled 'The Dance,' a beeswax sculpture inspired by the dryness of the swamp and her experience of Parkinsons. https://www.krystalseigerman.com.au/people-i-have-known-1 daily 0.75 2017-07-19 https://www.krystalseigerman.com.au/home-1 daily 0.75 2017-06-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1497319524208-2JLSSMRKPHB8KCQAFTTX/Absence_is_presence_01.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1497319548558-JBFV8DW41V85BGQA4W3R/Everything_must_go_01.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1497319516756-034HYUDI1DF29YNH5ISC/Absence_is_presence_03.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1497319575707-U69FQAA68G3ZHNIQMGYB/Everything_must_go_04.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1497319615278-JOZJSNGS6NB08T3R03XE/Singles_11.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1497319623252-RL5408GRMT2ABS523C0P/Singles_10.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1497319599756-V962TMEZG0G3U2NB92ZR/Singles_05.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1497319575800-B6PD9E0AEBYTT8W6U8WV/Self_serve_01.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1497319600277-QAV3AR9NNENDDABF93EC/Singles_01.jpg Home https://www.krystalseigerman.com.au/beyond-borders daily 0.75 2019-10-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1571715007150-ZIT62660P2CJEPW9LMOS/Beyond_borders_01.jpg Beyond Borders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1571715000156-PFP180ECSTK1GTYX3Z3T/Beyond_borders_02.jpg Beyond Borders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1571715014623-M087P4F4YNDUO03ZBRHA/Beyond_borders_03.jpg Beyond Borders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1571715025974-3UGCHOQIBBBREBETQ1U3/Beyond_borders_04.jpg Beyond Borders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1571715043328-YFRC2OJAOW9ANKN6PPDI/Beyond_borders_05.jpg Beyond Borders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1571715041049-OH2DOCUTT9UXEL8A356F/Beyond_borders_06.jpg Beyond Borders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1571715053626-6V54S6TUN6R4SXAP1YZM/Beyond_borders_07.jpg Beyond Borders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1571715078384-8PI8FI7FQEOMJ6PVTIJA/Beyond_borders_08.jpg Beyond Borders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1571715072705-702G9RWZIGZ7FJHYOCHI/Beyond_borders_10.jpg Beyond Borders https://www.krystalseigerman.com.au/mentoring daily 0.75 2025-06-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593f1b90e4fcb5c4585df42b/1610696789746-7N14C6QLSB16NPI8J7RK/image-asset.jpeg Mentoring
