Spirit of Sir Joseph Banks - "Weeping Banksia"


From Petrena Shaw:

Inspiration for this work was the combination of my love for our extraordinary native plant life, and the very special person that this piece was named after, Sir Joseph.

My love for both inspired me to use artistic license and combine two species of Banksia. Firstly the seedpods from the Banksia Sirata , opened after a bushfire, which symbolize new life after hard times. Secondly, the seductive leaves from the Banksia Robur (Swamp Banksia) which allow the interplay of water with the bronze, and the nurturing of that new life.

The realistic nature of the bark adds the finishing touch to a remarkable sculpture, that will stand the test of time. It has a spiritual energy of it's own and certainly has an important cultural significance for Sydney .

Limited to 12 trees worldwide, this piece is unique for the serious art collector and lover of bronze.

Artist Statement

I grew up surrounded by the natural beauty of Coffs Harbour on the mid north coast of New South Wales , Australia . With a father who was a forester and keen fisherman, and a mother who was a nursery worker and nature lover, it was inevitable that I grew up with a love and respect for the natural environment.

I look back fondly on the things I loved most: the wonderful sea creatures and the beautiful plants that filled my world. As with all artists, I am inspired by the interesting subject matter that surrounds us everyday. I hope to capture those inspirations in each piece of sculpture I create.
