Notes: | Familiar sights in the bush, the barbed wire fence and fire
have ambiguous connotations. For Kim Berman fire symbolises
change, in particular the process of transformation, the
purging of the past and the possibilities for growth and
renewal. But where there’s fire, there’s smoke, which for
her represents concealment and deception. Likewise, the
barbed wire fence may stand for nature’s violation and/or
protection. |
