The Faithful Listeners

A clean world. And listeners that never leave.
This watercolour artwork explores the state of being completely absorbed in music. Immersed in her violin performance, the young girl in the red coat stands detached from the surrounding urban bustle, establishing a pure spiritual space through her music. The deserted and blurred streetscape represents an inner psychological state rather than actual reality.

The bronze pig sculptures symbolize a form of permanence. While individual performers may grow older or relocate, these sculptures remain permanently in the centre of Adelaide, serving as dedicated listeners for generations of souls.
