Pro Hart Outback Art Prize

My work Verdant Skin has been selected as a finalist in the Pro Hart Outback Art Prize at Broken Hill Regional Gallery. The exhibition is open from the 3rd of August to 23rd of September 2018.

Laser cut from kangaroo leather ‘Verdant Skin’ distills the outback landscape into the purely decorative. The curl of the leather is unrestrained, maintaining a relationship to the body that was underneath. The intricately cut pattern is reminiscent of lace and doilies, transforming the land into a domestic space
