Passed/PRESENT comes to Paddo

Thea Weiss and I are delighted to bring Passed/PRESENT to the Wadsworth Gallery, 326 Oxford St, Paddington. It opens on March 14 and continues until the end of the month.

We explore forms of forgetting our history and our impact as the land and weather changes. The work considers Wagga Wagga's losses and restorations at a time when sustainability and Aboriginal reconciliation are debates across the country. Our work was shown at Gallery 43 in the Riverina Institute of TAFE at Wagga in 2016.

This painting is one of a series where I consider what lies beneath the surface of the brilliant, dark reaches of the Murrumbidgee.
