Drawn to Place – A shift in the landscape: Alex Asch, Mariana del Castillo, Patsy Asch

The artists in Drawn to Place: A shift in the landscape share intimate relationships (mother/son, husband/wife, mother-in-law/daughter-in-law) while also sharing a commitment to the environment and to social justice in their arts practice. This exhibition focuses on the Australian landscape and its transformation since the artists’ first contact in the 1970s to present ecological shifts driven by climate change and human intervention. Themes revolve around environmental degradation, yet also hint at the possibilities of a more sustainable future.

Opening Night: Friday 29 September, 6-8pm

Public Program: Rounding the Narrative – a bookmaking workshop with Mariana del Castillo
