Grass Seed Dreaming 2010 Barbara Weir.
In her Grass Seed Dreaming painting, Barbara Weir depicts the lifecycle of native grass from the Utopia region of Central Australia. The colours she uses reflect different stages of the plant's environment and in this particular painting the red fiery tones reflect the presence of bushfires sweeping across the country. Weir uses layered, overlapping and weaving brushstrokes to capture the dense, swaying movement of the grass and the ecological and spiritual cycles of renewal are tied to Aboriginal Jukurrpa (Dreaming).
