I dabble my foot in the billows green - A2 limited Ed. 1 of 25

In this piece, I've captured an ethereal underwater dance, a blend of fluid motion and stillness. It's a visual symphony of colours bursting with life. The interplay between light and shadow, my model and the water, creates an almost dreamlike quality. I wanted to evoke the feeling of playing with nature's embrace, a moment suspended in time. This artwork exudes a tranquil energy, perfect for infusing any space with a sense of serene dynamism. Swishing and twisting in the rippling light of the surface of the warm water - finding my feet on the edge of the river bank to find some stillness despite the slow current - enjoying the enveloping feel of my white dress. Named after a line in Walter De La Mare’s poem “Mermaid”.

Taken during an underwater photo shoot at Bitter Springs, Mataranka, Northern Territory.

Kerry Inkster is a distinguished visual artist celebrated for her profound exploration of women’s stories and experiences through mixed media. Her mission is to make art for quiet women who've been told to be smaller, so they can remember they have something powerful and valuable to offer the world. At the heart of her artistic practice lies an unwavering commitment to amplifying narratives that reflect the depth, complexity, and resilience inherent in womanhood.

Through her underwater photography, Inkster captures the transformative relationship between women and water—a powerful symbol of emotion, fluidity, and rebirth. Each photograph invites viewers to engage in introspection while revealing the challenges, triumphs, and intricacies that shape women's identities.

Her painting practice further delves into the complex tapestry of women's lives, utilising colour, form, and texture to embody the myriad emotions that accompany their diverse experiences. The layered canvases serve as a visual language, offering audiences a space for catharsis, inviting them to confront their relationships with themselves, femininity, power, and vulnerability.

Inkster's innovative techniques and emotive narratives foster meaningful dialogue surrounding gender and empowerment, while her commitment to community engagement includes volunteering at local galleries to nurture emerging talent.

A graduate of The South Australian School of Art / University of South Australia, Inkster has established herself as a significant figure in contemporary art, showcasing her work nationally and internationally in esteemed galleries and exhibitions, including an Artist Residency with Comebeck Ltd in Germany. A multiple award finalist, with her work housed in notable collections, she remains a pivotal voice in the art world.

Kerry Inkster currently resides in Fish Creek, Victoria, Australia, where she continues to evolve her artistic journey, dedicated to illuminating women’s voices and experiences.
