ABOUT THE ARTIST
Bernard Lee Singleton
“I paint, craft and make artefacts to ground myself. Through the process
of making a spear or shaping the figure of a spirit, I connect with my ancestors and they
help bring my work to life. My work is a way for me to acknowledge and remember the
times of my great-grandmothers and great- grandfathers. My designs are inspired by
the laws of nature and the forms found in the creation stories around me. Using these
basic forms or designs, I work to represent the bond of art and the continuation of
culture.”
Bernard Lee Singleton is an accomplished craftsman, curator and designer, born and
living in Cairns. Singleton grew up in Coen, Cape York. His mother is a Djabuguy
woman born in Mona Mona mission near Kuranda and his father is an Umpila (east
coast Cape York)/Yirrkandji man from Yarrabah mission.
