Artist in residence – Kim Mahood

To draw or paint a place is an act of deep attention and perseverance. It requires you to bring all your senses to the task – to listen and look and feel, and to translate the multi-dimensional repertoire of sensations into marks on a two-dimensional surface.

Having made many art-making sorties into the country around Mparntwe/Alice Springs, this residency will allow the artist to spend weeks exploring and drawing the country that carries such a charge of energy and memory, to attempt to capture something of its integral nature.

Exhibition opening, Saturday 1 June.
