Exhibition Dates: Friday 3 August – Sunday 2 September, 2007
Artists: Nicola De Rooy, Patrick Greive, Lisa Garland, Kit Hiller, Kerry Martin and Yvonne Von Licthan
Coinciding with Tasmanian Living Artist Week, Plot featured six North West artists working in the fields of painting, photography, printmaking and beaded jewellery.
The exhibition provided an insight into the artists’ close connection with their immediate environment, or ‘plot’. Individually, the art works were likened to ‘pin points’ on a map that when connected created a strong image of the North West region. In plotting this map, stories were revealed of a unique landscape – both wild and agricultural – and the people, flora and fauna that live there.
