Surfers Respect Nature
Artist: Nina Hurr
Title: Surfers Respect Nature
Year: 2021
Materials: Posca pen and spray paint on old/recycled surfboards.
Surfers Respect Nature highlights all of the beautiful things around us and how we can respect, preserve and enjoy them. The artworks are cheeky at times but also convey a deep respect for the environment. The artworks bring life to old surfboards that would otherwise be sent to landfill.
The sculpture consists of 5 surfboards with colourful pictures of our natural environment:
Things You Can Do: All the small changes we can make to our lifestyle which help to protect the environment for future generations.
Local Residents: The animals native to this region play an important role in maintaining diversity.
Oceans: All the beautiful creatures living in and around the ocean and what they might be thinking.
Native Plants: When I was young we travelled around Australia camping and identifying native plants. I was responsible for banksias, melaleucas and she-oaks. My sister had eucalyptus, Dad had hakeas and Mum had wildflowers.
Sharks: Each type of shark and their playful personalities.
