Close to the Wind Exhibition

New work by First Nations Australian multidisciplinary artist Lisa Waup.

"close to the wind" is a new body of work that celebrates Lisa Waup’s sustained exploration of printmaking. Investigating new inks and printing techniques, she has revealed an intuitive process that eloquently illustrates her life’s journey of discovery and connection. Her practice is concerned with the hidden histories of Australia, often referencing the ongoing impacts of colonization and the layers of colonial intervention that continue to impact First Peoples and the environment.-HANNAH PRESLEY, Guest Curator
