Kayla Finlayson | Detritus
Price range: $750.00 through $3,000.00
Detritus is a ceramic series honouring freshwater mussels, a keystone species within the upper Tweed River catchment on Ngarakwal Country. Through delicately sculpted porcelain slip-cast forms, the work traces ecological time, reflecting river cycles and the enduring effects of the 2022 floods. The adult mussel, emblematic of longevity and quiet ecological labour, underscores its essential role in sustaining waterway health through filtration. Incorporating riverine fragments and crystalline forms that evoke decomposition, the series unites material inquiry with environmental advocacy, with proceeds supporting local organisations advancing ecological restoration and education.
