Upcoming Book and Exhibition Project 2010: Desert Channels: The Impulse
to Conserve
This is a series of 12 landscape studies made in the Simpson Desert. The aim of the works is to represent the landscape as one experiences it when walking through it, that is from a number of different viewpoints of the one place. I aimed to use as little artifice as possible and replace instead simple observation and found pigment combined with natural pigments. All the colours used are naturally sourced earth colours except the titanium white pigment. The “green” is from crushed gravel from the track on our property. The works are a visual record of the ordinary or unremarkable and reveal that this landscape is in fact rich with aesthetic qualities. This in simple terms is the truth to be gained from painting landscape and the intention is to raise awareness of the special and different qualities in the landscape which may not be not immediately obvious.
