Sally has been working with the theme of dance since 1987 in collaboration with Jilba Wallace. After a trip to India in that year she based her work around the Hindu God Shiva, Lord of the Universal Dance. Shiva's symbolism is important to the artist's work because it is concerned with the cyclic laws of change. Sally see's movement as synonymous with change and that when something remains static it dies. By working with Jilba Sally became part of the action of the dance. The conversations together about the personal imagery became the stimulus for the work together. Sally started working on a large scale, on the ground, using sumi brush and black paint as Jilba moved on the paper.

The Artist translated her movements into marks, sometimes leading sometimes being lead. The music reflected the movement and the mood and the line became the passage through time and space. The ground drawing in the sculpture yard represents the LABYRINTH. It is Sally's interpretation of the dancer's movement.

In the three dimensional work she attempted to link the mobiles to the ground drawing. Using the medium of wire to define space and yet retain the spontaneity of movements.

Paintings from the Labyrinth: Before coming to Australia the Artist spent ten years in the Eastern Mediterranean and made many visits to Crete. The mythological stories of this area are also significant for her work. The oriental God Shiva, whose vehicle is the bull, corresponds to occidental Dionysus, also Lord of the Dance.

Dionysus too is represented by a lunar bull and symbolises the ever living, every dying God who regenerates the earth. The Labyrinth she sees as a journey through the inner dream world of the unconscious with all its unknown possibilities.
