TITLE: Remnants Two (1)
ARTFORM: Artist Book, 120 mm (h) x 120mm (d) x 90 (w)closed (260mm diameter open)
A collection of patinas, patterns, hand worked images and digital prints on various papers: (acetate, rice paper, recycled elephant dung papers) compiled with concertina and French twist binding in a book. Remnants Two is a sampling of the place around the edge of Menindee Lake. Over 15 years of walking, collecting and sampling the earth in all its seasons I have bought them together for those for whom face book selfies are not satisfying. Put it into your bag and you can take a bit of this place with you anywhere. Remnants were developed after I created ‘Tread Lightly’ a large wall work with mixed and found media on Perspex and a book using digital images on recycled paper.
BIOGRAPHY: After studying art at RMIT and University of Melbourne I have made art to create and continue conversations about the place, the people and the ideas at that time Protest art at the Tin Sheds Sydney University, Psychological landscapes and Political portraits all used found media and techniques which were integral to the ideas I expressed. Recent works have focused, on refugees and environmental challenges which we as people need to face. I have exhibited since 1967 from Melbourne Sydney, Adelaide, regional centres in NSW and Victoria and overseas in NYC, Berlin, Paris and Mexico.
Every so often I decide to experience more education. I do this fleetingly – University of New England Law (year), Charles Sturt University Fine Arts (1 year), Columbia University NYC (contemporary arts – 8 weeks). I installed a white cube gallery within the Menindee Tourist Centre. I exhibit with friends 2-3 times a year. I have won the White Cliffs Arts Prize.
LOCATION: Geocentre shop area, Corner of Bromide and Crystal Lane, Broken Hill. The Geocentre occupies the old Bond Store building (1893). This geological science museum boasts a large mineral collection. It is home to the Silver Tree, one of Broken Hill's most famous displays, a silver centrepiece that previously adorned Charles Rasp's dining room table.
