Sophie 2024 Animation: Lisa Roberts.

Sophie

This is an animation about creation, and a celebration of relationships that endure through time and space. It begins with 'Sophie', a story by Carmel Bird, spoken by my daughter Katherine. "First of all Sophie was a fish..." It ends with recent recordings I made in the Kimberley, with an early tracing I made of my son Josef climbing. The young man appears to move over paintings that are enduring tracings by Gwion Gwion artists of ancestral fish.

"...We must travel and think in free-ranging patterns... meaning being made in the meandering paths between the words, not the isolated words themselves."

Yunkaporta, Sandtalk 2019, p.21
