Carol Archer - Thicket
Every day, 11am to 6pm Thursday 28 March to Tuesday 2 April
opening event 2pm 29 March
Carol Archer’s exhibition Thicket expresses the mystery, intricacy and enchantment of densely forested places.
The works in this exhibition are inspired by regularly visited places on Worimi and Cammeraygal lands in N.S.W. Through intricate markmaking Archer conveys the wonder found in profusion of branch, trunk, and leaf. Drama, in these small-scale works, results from a contrast between deeply cast shadows and the scatter of sunlight that highlights texture and detail. Archer’s etchings, drawings and mixed media works apply the simplest of materials – ink, watercolours, charcoal and paper – to a subject of dizzying complexity.
Carol Archer is an Australian visual artist who lives on Worimi Country at Markwell in the Myall Lakes region of N.S.W. Her solo and collaborative paintings, drawings and prints have been exhibited in Australia and internationally, and may be found in the collections of Artbank, Bundanon, New England Regional Art Gallery and the Hong Kong Trade Office in Geneva.
