ideas that go beyond sentiment and nostalgia....
Here is an excerpt from the exhibition invitation:
The artist’s notion of wallum presents us with views of a dark yet luminous forest, scarred by natural forces, with its scraped surfaces suggesting layers of deep time. The interwoven trunks and glowing interiors create rhythmic patterns and a landscape pulsing with a warm life force. The strong illusion of depth draws us deep within the forest’s inner core, yet at the same time the bold lines of foreground trunks suggest a barrier that bars our entry into the heart of the wallum, guarding its inner secrets.
Dr Lisa Chandler.
The Ideas of Wallum sounds intriging and the few images I've seen are inticing. I'm looking forward to attending the opening and seeing them in real life. See you there. Michelle Mcghee.
