A matter of geography

I was invited by Sumi Perera to join a group of British printmakers contributing to this project which was slightly knocked off course by the pandemic. However the extra months that afforded gave me more time to work on my print which was very helpful as it took much longer than planned. This exhibition is the first of a planned series showing the works produced around the world.

Thinking Of Place 3
Friday 4 February 2022 - Saturday 12 March 2022
NorthSite Contemporary Arts
96 Abbott St, Cairns

This is what the organisers have to say about it;
‘Thinking of Place iii is a collaborative print project that involves 4-6 artists from each of 16 international printmaking groups who have created new works for a travelling exhibition that has its world premier in Cairns at NorthSite. This is a new and expanded iteration of a project that began as Thinking of Place i in 2014.

Participating artists were invited to invoke a legend, myth, story or an aspect of ancestral heritage in relation to their personal identification with geography and environment. This international collaboration thus represents individual responses to both specific localities and shared cultural legacies.’
