Emma Stenhouse Shoreline Candle 460g in Multi

About the artwork: 

Come together on the shore, listen to the Ocean as she speaks, be at home with your feet walking on the damp sand. Travel to her and then rest. Rest and watch the colours change amongst the waves as the moon rises in the distance.

About the artist:

Emma Stenhouse is a proud Ngarrindjeri woman and a contemporary Indigenous artist on a journey of self discovery, deepening her connection with her family, exploring her heritage, and inspired by her love of Country. 

Emma encapsulates her knowledge in her storyworks formed by her deep relationship to land and guided by strong female role models in her community. Growing up in Broken Hill, Outback New South Wales, Emma intrinsically draws on her connection to the arid lands of the bush.

This is often evident in her use of colours inspired by the red dirt, and the simple concepts of nurturing nature and to continue its growth and sustainability. She now resides by the beach and explores the shades of green & blue reflected in the region.The lush green fields, hills and the blues of the many waterways and the Southern Ocean.

Emma is an Educator and is passionate about sharing her experience and culture through her art practice within her classrooms and in workshops. As a multifaceted creative, she explores diverse art practices influenced by her journey. Each art piece is braided with learning, an enriching exchange between artist and viewer, a continuation of culture - a platform for cross cultural exchange.
