I had the chance to travel to Shepparton for the opening of Raquel Ormella’s major touring survey exhibition, and got to spend time with the artist for an Ocula Conversation.

Remember how I won those beautiful @potter_and_co_australia fabrics at @sydneyfrocktails?? I sewed the linen up into an #estuaryskirt (hacked to lengthen & take out some of the width) and the grey merino knit into a #builtbywendy tee #winnerwinnerchickendinner #sydneysews #sydneyspoolettes #slowfashion #sewliberatedpatterns #isewmyownclothes #homemadebinch #linenlover #ithaspockets
"It is a myth that a real artist is madly consumed with art, a kind of romantic idea we have about artists, but in reality I don't think you have to be consumed by art to be authentic. Your artistic self is one part of you that you can occupy, just as the loving, mothering part of you is also a fully engaging place to occupy. You travel back and forth because you have to" - author & illustrator Martine Murray, on one of many dog-eared pages. Never-ending respect to all the artists making work while also being primary carers 👊👶♥
