Bird in Flight

Rhonda was born and grew up in Alice Springs. Previously Rhonda has made necklaces and produced some paintings. However more recently she has discovered an interest and passion for making soft sculptures and print making. Her inspiration for her camels, come from seeing them running wild on the South Road out of town when she was a child.

She also produces birds, dolls, echidnas and anything else that might reflect life in and around Alice Springs. Rhonda has found that the art room gives her a place to be safe and to make a better future for herself. Rhonda says that sewing makes her feel happy and that she is proud of the work she creates. As Rhonda’s confidence as an artist grows, so does her subject matter. From her beautiful lifeful birds to her thoughtful alien figures embellished not only with wool and cotton, but also with feathers, metal and beads, Rhonda's sculptures create landscapes of stories that weave together the here and now, the past and the ever hopeful future.
