Spiritual/physical definition;
Sentree…
Individual or groups assigned to provide protection or keep watch, guard, lookout, picket, protector, sentinel, ward,
for physical and spiritual spaces.
When I took this image of this staircase I felt a presence, a vibrating energy around it. I first thought it would be the presence of one of the human inmates of this building as it had been originally built in 1864 by convict labour as a Lunatic Asylum and Invalid Depot.
My Great Great Grandfather had been sent out from England as a sapper. I believe he was with the 20th Company of Royal Engineers, arriving in Fremantle, Western Australia in 1851. The 20th Company had been sent out to build the Fremantle Prison and other Government infrastructure using the newly arrived Convicts as their labour force.
There is a very good chance my Great Great Grandfather also had a hand in building some of the original sections of this Asylum which was also built by members of the Royal Engineers with Convict labour.
While I was trying to superimpose images of people over this staircase image I found that there was no vibrating energy at all like what I had felt when I was taking this image originally.
I had put the idea of superimposing people over the stair case aside and went onto another art project. It was while I was playing around with this other art project that I tried superimposing some images of my beloved Jarrah trees over the staircase and the vibration I had felt while taking the image in the Asylum screamed very loudly indeed.
Of cause, it all made sense then. Well to me it did. I was picking up the vibrating spirit of the timber in this building as it had come from my beloved Western Australian bush. This staircase was built out of what would have been a very very old Jarrah tree that had been cut down and flouted down the Swan River and milled locally to construct so much of this buildings timber structures.
The timber in this building had probably come from one or two very old Jarrah trees which would have been growing for hundreds of years in the surrounding forests that would have only had the ancient community of local clans of aboriginal people who had lived among them in harmony also for as long as these trees had been growing in this ancient sacred land.
Not only did my newly arrived European ancestor settlers decimate the ancient peoples culture, homeland, food supplies but they also decimated a very ancient forest full of unique fauna and flora.
These images are about redress...healing the spirit has to come first then and only then can the gap that exists between these cultures living separately in this ancient sacred land in harmony, love and finally unit to walk forward into a just future.
Added to each image in this album are their inspired stories to this emerging family HISHERTREE.
Each image has a word title that would have been spelt in English with "try" at the end like ancestry, carpentry, or infantry. I have added "tree" to replace the "try" and then taken their dictionary meanings that are only ever describing the outside physical world and married some spiritual elements.
The human beings body lives in the outside world of the physical but their inner self lives in the realm of spirit.
