A conversation with the artist about her life, work and the books that combine her poetry and art.
The recent loss of the Ledeatte’s mother prompted the conclusion of artistic reflection through artwork that has spanned 10 years and shaped her artistic practice. Part of that work was triggered by Ledeatte’s father’s death, and 2020 demanded the closure of that reflection following her mother’s death during the pandemic. In response to her reflections, Ledeatte has been developing a body of work within her art practice, which explores social issues related to the legacy of colonisation.
