Jerboa Jerboa's enchantments cost most dear was created for the Entrancing Others exchange portfolio, curated by Rona Green and exhibited at the Gippsland Art Gallery in 2021, where it also entered the collection. The image was designed to work as two versions: a full version for a very limited edition; and a 'cropped' version for the exchange portfolio. The portrait of a two-headed were-thylacine draws on early modern woodblock illustrations of hairy wild women and monstrous dog-headed races, as well as the unkind cliché of Tasmanians having two heads. These studio snaps show Jerboa Jerboa in progress.
