Signed copy of Cultivate by Belinda Fox

Author: Belinda Fox
'Cultivate' charts a decade of artistic evolution and presents more than 200 works by Belinda Fox, an Australian artist whose practice navigates the fragile balance between beauty and vulnerability, resilience and collapse. Spanning painting, printmaking, ceramics, glass, and collaborative installations, the works gathered here, reproduced in vibrant detail, respond to both personal transitions and global upheavals: migration, ecological fragility, and the search for hope amid uncertainty. This lushly produced volume is designed by award-winning designer Evi O. It follows Fox’s first monograph, Back to the Start (Goff Editions, 2016), acting as a sequel of sorts that continues the story of her evolving practice. Together, the two books mark significant phases of her artistic journey. Alongside Fox’s own reflections, 'Cultivate' features contributions from leading voices who know her work closely. Sophie Travers (Co-Director/CEO, Australian Tapestry Workshop) traces her restless expansions across continents and media; critic John McDonald situates her imagery within broader cultural and ecological dialogues; Danny Lacy (Director, Shepparton Art Museum) provides the foreword, framing this decade as one of resilience and transformation; and Katherine Roberts (Senior Curator, Manly Art Gallery & Museum) engages the artist in a candid conversation about process, place, and purpose. Beautifully designed and deeply considered, 'Cultivate' is both a record and an invitation: to pause, to look, and to enter the layered spaces where material, story, and humanity converge.
