‘Momo’ translates to ‘plenty’ in Motu, a language spoken by the Motuans in Papua New Guinea. My Granny and Grandfather built a life over in Papua New Guinea for twenty and thirty years respectively. Most of these pieces are derived directly from family photos and are incredibly special. Without my family and these beautiful memories that they have so generously shared throughout this journey, this work wouldn’t have been possible.
Along with these paintings are a few more pieces that have emerged out of my love of Africa and the bush, hence why ‘Momo’ feels right.
This collection will be available from the 26th of November at The Toowoomba Gallery, Queensland. Feel free to get in touch with TTG for more information or to purchase a piece.
