Sacred Ground, Beating Heart

Works on paper by Judy Watson 1989 - 2003

24 September - 23 October 2006
Redland Art Gallery, Cleveland, Gallery 1, 2

Selected from the first survey exhibition of Judy Watson’s work from Curtin University in 2003, this exhibition focuses on Watson’s highly personal vision of the land – the physical and conceptual framework that underpins her practice. Watson offers us a rich landscape that documents her connections with her grandmother’s country, Lawn Hill Gorge, in North Western Queensland, her travels through other countries and her exploration of the ‘country of the body’.
