Wild/flower Women III - Women Walking Country
8 October - 28 November 2020
Gympie Regional Gallery
This exhibition will draw inspiration from the heritage of women who have walked Cooloola country from Traditional Owners as well as ‘wild/flower women’ Kathleen McArthur and Judith Wright, including their campaigning to establish Cooloola National Park. The exhibition will profile contemporary female artists from Gympie and the Sunshine Coast who re-energise heritage and history with their own responses to our wildflowers, natural heritage and walking together on country. Wild/flower Women III will create a sense of the different perspectives, scales and scope of the wallum and Cooloola ecologies, the relationships between humans and the more than human world, and ways of seeing inspired by art and nature.
