Buoy oh Buoy
Artist: Community Weave
Title: Buoy oh Buoy
Year: 2021
Materials: Fish nets / rope from W.A Coastline
These ropes and fish nets were collected by Fiona Anderson from 2012-2014 along the Western Australian coast and made their way over land to Brunswick Heads and stored for 3 years in different households and studios in the Byron Shire until Fiona and her family found a place in to settle. They were rediscovered again last year and bought back together through a community weave project for the BNSW. The process led to artists unconsciously making a series of Buoys. Weavers, artists and community collaborated to create the a series of Buoys, from these discarded coastal fishing ropes and nets.
Buoys are anchored floats that serve as a navigation mark, to show reefs or other hazards in the ocean.
