Notes
'Breath' is the title of the exhibition and “Brand New Day” the image on the invitation – “the brand new day that always comes, yet needs to be sought and celebrated, internally constructed as a calendar.” The “Jetty” series is yet another component of this exhibition, jetty as in “the crossing from earth to water and water to earth, from conscious to unconscious – bridging”, bridges. Dr David Trappler, Jill’s husband, said, in a previous catalogue, of her work: “For Jill, the canvas is an arena where the conflict between conscious and unconscious processes assert themselves and are resolved in a specific way, reflecting the unique authorship of its creator, yet carrying transpersonal value and therefore belonging to the collective. It is about building bridges internally and with others. It is about a certain kind of containment through linkages and interconnectedness.”1
