The Lake Ohau  spring  storm of October 4th  2020 resulted in a devastating fire fuelled by the great winds. The fire  took hold in the thousands of wilding pines which surrounded the village destroying 50 homes. Our home was amongst them. The intensity of loss and dislocation drew me into an extended period of reflection, self discovery and then, inevitably, back to my studio and a new body of work, NightFlight.
