22.01.2022 The Storm: Last night’s bath was a luxury so refreshing to get rid of all that salt spray, at least for 8 hours anyway, but the storm has arrived and the lighthouse is being lashed by heavy rain, big seas and crashing waves, but the tanks are full. No shipping news today, they are staying well out to sea to ride out the storm. The albatross disappear during storms, I wonder where they go? It’s a hard life for families, cut off from the outside world; only the reciprocating ...beams from other lighthouses, passing ships and the odd sailboat provide fleeting and fragile contact with the outside world. Trying to contact the mainland is almost impossible during a storm, only a few spots on the island allow phone accessa lifeline. On the end of the jetty is one such spot, but an umbrella in this wind and rain? That won’t last long. The dinghy needs to be secured now too, it’s the only lifeline. In years past it could be many months before any contact with the outside world could be made, life was tough, they were resourceful and strong. No good being lonely out here, it is always lonely, but that is its charm and beauty. Yesterday was calm, how quickly the weather can turn, it’s always changing on the lighthouse, crashing waves, an angry ocean but the light remains constanthow vulnerable we feel. https://www.suellensaideecook.com.au/ #tasmanianartist #australianartist #photomontage #digitalcollage #digitalcomposite #contemporaryart #creativephotography #impossiblethings #lighthouse #islandhome #dreamscape #hobart #narrativeart #photoshop #creativecloud #isolation #magicrealism #reflections #beachlife #instaartist #artist #fineartphotography #suellensaideecook @thehenryjones https://www.suellensaideecook.com.au/ link in bio See more
19.01.2022 The Gatherer's Daughter : Comprising 19 separate photographs and 85 layers melded together to tell the story of our planet’s future. In particular, the threat to species diversity and imminent mass extinctions brought about by the consequences of climate change. The image speaks of what will be inherited by future generations and that life will very likely look different to what we enjoy now, a home on a quarter acre block in the suburbs. It cannot be ignored; we must do al...l that is possible if we are to ameliorate and alleviate the unstoppable consequences of our current behaviour. But that is something that only another generation will fully understand and be prepared to make the sacrifices to preserve life, all life, on earth. https://www.suellensaideecook.com.au/ #tasmanianartist #australianartist #photomontage #digitalcollage #digitalcomposite #contemporaryart #creativephotography #impossiblethings #gretathunberg #climate #dreamscape #hobart #narrativeart #photoshop #creativecloud #isolation #magicrealism #reflections #beachlife #instaartist #artist #fineartphotography #suellensaideecook @thehenryjones https://www.suellensaideecook.com.au/ link in bio See more
