Bubble O Bushranger collection – Artist statement
Growing up I always loved Ned Kelly stories – the landscapes, robberies and shootouts – it’s all so deliciously camp. With this body of work I’ve reimagined Bubble O Bill as 'Bubble O Bushranger' – our very own sugary gunslinging bushranger of the high country. Bringing these two unexpected icons together creates new narratives from well told Australian folklore. Is the Bubble O Bushranger a hero or villain? You decide. But in these heavy times, it’s comforting that we can all unite over refined cane sugar and questionable grades of food colouring.
