Baybaru
Cairns, Australia
"Baybaru " (Stainless steel, copper, fibre-optic lighting) Inhabitants of reef and land have always sustained life from harvesting the riches from the sea. These hybrid sculptural forms are derived from both the sea anemone of the reefs and the woven funnel-net fish traps (baybaru) of the indigenous people. Both are methods of obtaining sustenance from entrapment. Paul Johnson 2003
