Sharing the Edge
In 2009-2010 Annamaria Weldon was an Adaptation Artist-in-Residence based at Lake Clifton and at The School of Anatomy & Human Biology, University of Western Australia. Sharing the Edge is the research project on wetlands and thrombolites she undertook there in collaboration with naturalist Laurie Smith at SymbioticA- Centre of Excellence in Biological Arts. It has been the catalyst for her nature poems, landscape memoir, work in community education and photography.

Poems on Nature & Place
'On the horizon, the veranda’s edge
at the rim of my desk, in page margins
a landscape waits expectantly …
elements insisting I write, patient
as four precious things of a library.'
Paper, Ink, Inkstone, Brushes, 2008 Creatrix Poetry Prize
