Ronda Sharpe

Ronda Sharpe is a Wiradjuri environmental artist from Parkes, NSW who responds creatively within a First Nations cultural context, focusing on Wiradjuri traditions, community and Country.

I am drawn to creating contemporary fibre artworks that represent a continuum of Wiradjuri cultural artefacts, Country, language and respect ‘Yindayamarra’ for Mother Earth. I use recycled data and electrical cables and natural grasses, transforming these mediums into sculptural forms that juxtapose modern and traditional weaving techniques.
