About the Artists: Agnes Agnes Wotton: I’ve lived on Palm Island Bwgcolman, QLD all my life. My mother who is an Indinji woman gave birth to me in 1971 to my Father, a Yalanji Man. I’ve been painting for 17 years and got my first big breakthrough at the Cairns Indigenous Art Fair in 2019. Art is a way of expressing myself and escaping from reality; it gives me peace of mind, and I would like to use my work to help others also find their dreams. Sea Anemone Abstract : “Sea Anemone is part of a series about my home, Palm Island. It conveys the beautiful movement of the waves that slowly move through the house of the anemone. It also captures the inner peace of one’s soul. The red and white elements represent the clown fish that lives in the anemone’s house”. Spiritual Transformation Abstract Butterfly: The butterfly is symbolic to the Australian Indigenous people – as it’s believed that the butterfly represents spiritual transformation. Butterfly’s also bring hope and happiness. Personally, I paint butterflies to represent self, my connection to the land, my spiritual journey and how far I have come.
