The exhibition has evolved out of John's long held fascination with the minutiae as well as the larger history and evolution of our continent, particularly the margin where the Australian bio-geographical region meets the Asian region. The exhibition investigates how the landmasses of this area have moved towards each other and dramatically collided in recent geological time along what is known as 'the Wallace Line'.
Exhibition Dates: 6 September – 29 September 2001

John Wolseley is one of Australia’s most important artists. His work in watercolour, drawing, printmaking and installation over the last 40 years has been a meditation on how the earth is a dynamic system of which we are all a part of. Detailed studies of insects, botany, birdwatching and geology have been a preoccupation for most of his artistic practice. He portrays the Australian landscape and its ecosystems by combining collage elements and markings made ‘in collaboration’ with the natural environment. Wolseley’s works celebrate the beauty of the Australian wilderness and encourage an understanding of the significance of environmental fragility.
