Under the camellia tree by Genevieve Ginty

FREE SHIPPING, RETURNS & INSURANCE

A generally dark image of dark green foliage and shadows, with yellow and rouge highlights. A log stands on its end underneath a camellia tree. A vintage yellow ceramic jug is on top of the log. Bright rouge camellias are bursting out of the jug, but it's impossible to know if they form part of the tree or have been cut and placed in the jug. One other camellia is at the left of frame, clearly part of the tree. Other buds can be spotted as small amounts of colour popping through the dark green foliage.

Artwork Description

Photograph on paper

Signed on the front.

This artwork comes with an external frame

The yellow jug, a vintage kookaburra kettle once used to boil water for tea, is now an excellent vase. Imbued with the lives of the people who have held it before me and the very different world it was created in, the jug takes on a persona, perhaps theirs, possibly mine, or maybe, yours. It has its own, intimate relationship with the flowers that it holds and in turn, with the landscape that holds it. The images are allegories of love, lust and loss.

A mid-wide shot of a large body of water. It is misty, almost obscuring the horizon. The upper half of the image has a blue tone from the mist and the bottom half a slightly warmer tone from the sand in the foreground. Although you can see the sand through the water, the water fills the frame edge to edge and down to the bottom of frame. A vintage yellow ceramic jug is partially submerged in the water and is small in the centre of the frame. In the jug are two branches of orange banksia and foliage. One banksia reaches out and bends toward the horizon and out of frame, the other points toward the sand. The jug and the banksia are reflected in the water which has small ripples, seemingly visible only through the reflection.

A wide shot of hundreds of wild flannel flowers in the foreground and more in the background. The colours are soft greens and white against dark browns and black shadows. A tree trunk can be seen in the middle distance of the right hand side of frame. A vintage yellow ceramic jug is in the lower third, slightly to the left of centre. It sits small amongst the flannel flowers which tower over and around the jug.

A vintage yellow ceramic jug sits to the right of frame on an antique wooden surface which stretches across the lower third of the image from left to right. The only light source is through an unseen window, to the right of the jug. The window is partly out of frame and partly obscured by a white thick cotton curtain. A shadow runs diagonally through the frame from upper right hand side to lower left, throwing most of the upper left corner of the image into darkness. There are no flowers in the jug, however, long, thin, complex strands of zigzag wattle with small yellow balls of flower are loosely wrapped around the jug, both embracing it and forming an impenetrable barrier around the jug. The strands disappear into the shadow, and small balls of dropped wattle flowers are scattered around the jug.

A vintage yellow ceramic jug is mostly in the right-hand half of the frame. It is side on with the lip facing inwards. It is outside but on a floor of old broken bathroom tiles. The background is out of focus but indicates a body of water and bush beyond. The jug is overflowing with jasmine. It spills out and falls all around. There is a lot of jasmine foliage with new bright buds in the middle and foreground of the left side of frame. The colours of the image are desaturated, except for the pinks of the jasmine stamen and the yellow jug.
