BRIDGING THE GAP
There is more than one way to bridge the gap and this painting takes a journey down the river through the decades. Initially, it was a raft, a boat, something that would float livestock, people, belongings, anything across the water- it could take many trips and sometimes things (or dog's) got left behind. As time passed, construction culminated in the iconic convict built bridges. They were decorative with hand hewn stone, a statement piece that dwarfed anything gone before. To this day, those that have survived are much preserved and treasured as a reminder of the skills of the past. In this painting, the arches of the convict bridge create a frame in which to look into the future and see today's modern solution, rather ordinary and uninspiring compared to it's predecessor. In the second arch is a storm water outlet covered in graffiti, contemporary infrastructure that is necessary but not beautifully crafted like the convict bridge.There is a soft morning light and the water undulates gently down it's course.
