The Unity of Life: Morley

Penelope Forlano

Title: The Unity of Life: Morley

Artist/s: Penelope Forlano

Year: 2024

Site: Morley Station

Location Detail: Artwork is integrated into sections of glazed skylights, centrally positioned in the main station roof/ceiling.

Medium: Ceramic print on glass

Description:

The skylights across the Ellenbrook Line form a suite of artworks dedicated to revealing the interrelationships of all living things across these areas. Marcia McGuire explored the Noongar social and ecological interdependence for Ellenbrook and Ballajura, while Penelope Forlano focused on the ecological interdependence of the flora and fauna for Whiteman Park, Morley and Noranda.

Morley Station stands on what was once abundant ancient bushland. Here, the artwork illustrates two reptiles; the endemic Western Tiger Snake (Notechis Scutatus or Mooyop in Noongar) and Marbled Gecko (Christinus Marmoratus or Bibdjool in Noongar) drawn with the elements of the local tree Prickly Bark (Eucalyptus Todtiana or Dwutta in Noongar).
