Week 20: 24 - 30 Sept 1787

I have had an epiphany

My rope is spectactularly masculine.

I had always intended it to show the voyage of the women of the first fleet.

But there is nothing feminine about this rope.

But that doesn't matter, it is actually better this way,

and it allows me to make better sense of everything.

The women wouldn't have come to Australia

if they weren't brought by the men.

The women were virtually invisible, their purpose would begin

once the fleet arrived in Australia
