Little Survivor - Bathurst Harbour, 2026, depicts a spindly tea tree, determined to grow on the soft banks of Bathurst Harbour, despite its exposure to westerly winds and regular metre-high waves. “It looks like it hasn’t grown for years,” How remarks, marvelling at the plant’s endurance. While the picturesque mountains of the southwest are often the centre of artistic attention, Little Survivor crops the top of the mountain background, focussing instead on this micro-scene, of a plant that is so ubiquitous in the Tasmanian bush that it becomes almost invisible. In Little Survivor, the stunted tea tree is elevated to hero.
