This print is from the series, ‘Renegotiating the Landscape’, which deals with the issue of human intervention in the landscape across remote regions of the world.
There are very few natural places left on earth that have not been imposed on by humankind. You are invited to detach from the beauty of the grand vista and feel the disorientation these landscapes represent. Our interference in the course of nature’s flow is questioned.
This work was created for the Print Council of Australia Print Commission 2020. Established in 1967, the PCA Print Commission offers major promotional and professional development opportunities for selected artists. It also provides a vital source of revenue for the ongoing work of the Print Council of Australia
