Darvall’s perspective highlights the power of nature - evident in her multi-plate prints depicting Thailand Buddhist stupas decaying into the wilderness, and the oil paintings of an Australian grass tree elegantly sprouting on a roadside: see Blades of Grass B,C 2025 and Wastelands to Wilderness, D 2025. Here contemporary art exposes ecological crises of our own making but also their ultimate resolution by the forces of nature.

Currently her artistic gaze combats human interference,industrial agriculture, and urbanization; see Braided Paths 2025 etching on steel and watercolourmonoprint looks at long worn paths across and into the landsape studded by unruly weeds gnawed to the roots by hungry cockatoos.
