Created in the Kirkwood State Forest in the Gladstone Region, Central Queensland, Australia

'Lost and Found' is a photography collection of ephemeral artworks created across the Gladstone Region, using natural and waste materials encountered on location.
The transient nature of each design celebrates the freedom that comes with natural change, and encourages an intuitive way of making art. As one passerby commented as I was making the stingray, ‘Ah! You’re playing! That kinda stuff is good for the soul, isn’t it?’
The hands-on approach serves to transmit to the viewer a sense of the therapeutic value of making tactile and mindful contact with the Earth, while also inspiring a newfound appreciation for the beauty in simplicity.
The almost invisible familiarity of fallen leaves suddenly takes on a whole new presence, when moved around a little and placed in a different way! We are surrounded by spectacular nature, when we slow down enough to notice it.
It’s my hope that in experiencing this collection you feel grounded to this place that we are so fortunate to call home, and motivated to take care of the Earth so that she may continue to take care of us too.
“The painting is profoundly beautiful. Seeing our personalities and relationship on canvas in such a personal way is really special. It brings me serenity, peace, and clarity of vision. Words really cannot explain how thankful we are for this commission. It will be proudly on display wherever we choose to call home forever.”
Robb
“Bold. Deep. Illuminating. The painting anchors me to my heart… It connects me to my roots and to my future. I lie on my couch and take moments to slow down, to pause, to look at it and connect.’”
Lois
“Jen’s art is simply captivating! The piece feels deeply personal and evokes a range of emotions. If you’re looking for art that speaks to your soul, look no further...”
Caro
“I commissioned a painting as a gift for our anniversary. She captured what I wanted perfectly! I love how it turned out and my partner loved the present. I enjoyed the whole process - very professional with a clear timeline and exceptional delivery. I highly recommend Jen Hollstein - she is the best!”
John
“Freeflow was a fun and transformative experience. It was so lovely to feel like there were no 'wrong' answers. The practice was trauma-informed and neuro-affirming. Jen is such a natural teacher. Her friendly and approachable manner made us feel so safe and comfortable.”
Dana
“Freeflow is a place where I can surrender to the moment and return to my body. Each session helps me gently recalibrate, listen to what I need, and move with creativity, joy, and authentic expression. Jen holds such a safe, nourishing, and transformative space. Freeflow is a gift.”
Carolina
“We had such a fulfilling morning at the session. Jen, you were amazing, so attentive and knowledgeable. You made sure everyone felt safe while also encouraging us to push our boundaries in a way that felt natural. We left feeling inspired with fresh energy. Such a fantastic experience, thank you!”
Andreia
“It gave me the equivalent feels of having had a wholesome reset / holiday / soul massage... These days it’s a rarity that I can feel totally safe and relaxed outside of the house so I’m infinitely grateful.”

Acknowledgment
As many of us are immigrants, refugees, the grandchildren of colonisers, and/or descendants of those violently brought to this land, it is our collective responsibility to pay respect and recognise that the lands we occupy are the traditional territories of Indigenous nations. We are here because this land has been stolen and occupied forcefully, and has never been ceded.
Therefore, I respectfully acknowledge the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the land, waters, and skies in this dimension and beyond upon and through which I have the privilege to live and dream - the Byellee, Gooreng Gooreng, Gurang, and Taribelang Bunda people. I pay my respects to the Elders past, present, and emerging of Indigenous nations in Australia and abroad.
This always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
I recognise that the opportunity I’ve had to travel and live in different countries is a luxury; a wealth given to me by the system in which I was born. As I move through the process of unlearning and relinquishing that privilege, I endeavour to find ways to enact positive change in the global and local communities.
It is our collective responsibility to critically interrogate and reconcile with these colonial histories, both thoroughly and intersectionally. We must deconstruct the present-day implications of this colonisation to honour, respect, protect, and sustain this still-invaded land and its people.
