Abstract

The Australian fairy-tale tradition is as much about art as literature. This interview engages with how one artist physically draws upon the Australian landscape to retell iconic imagery from European fairy tale and folklore and how she sees her work in relation to contemporary writers. Australian fairy tale is in open negotiation with the history of the landscape and finding the stuff of fairy tale in the rocks, leaves, bones and debris of the landscape allows Carrington to craft work that engages with old European traditions while connecting to Australia’s material presence and looking forward to our innovative future in the genre.
