Pippita Bennett lives on Dharug and Gundungurra Country in the Blue Mountains. She uses natural dyes to create colour on the threads and textiles she works with. Her dyed fabrics are soaked with the memory of the place they were dyed; similarly thrifted fabric holds memory of its past use. Stitches are her words, a memory of time and place.

This work captures the flash of winter sunlight on the cliffs at the end of her street. She has used coreopsis dyed satin to capture the glow of the rich golden sandstone. The plant dyed wool stitching, the big French knots and the running stitch, represent the rugged ancient rock and the mountain ash in this ancient landscape.
