Ravaged Land
15 October- 3 November
At Thienny Lee Gallery, 176 New South Head Rd, Edgecliff NSW
Colourful parrots flashing through the trees, the morning chorus of a song bird, a day of trekking through pristine forest; these we enjoy, these are what we stand to lose.
What is the cost of our comfortable lifestyle? Where do we draw the line between comfort and sustainability? What relative value do we give to humans and the other species, both animal and plant, with whom we share this planet?
Leonie Robison’s exhibition of mixed media works is about the challenges our environment is facing, focusing on endangered native Australian birds and bushfire damaged environments to highlight the losses we have already sustained, the diversity we continue to lose, and our grim future if we don’t take action.
Abstract depictions of birds, desolate and degraded landscapes, beauty in the starkness of representation, Ravaged Land is a thought provoking illustration of what is, what was and what might be.
