2018:  'Three Storylines' Exhibition at Benalla Gallery.
April 19 - May 20. 2018

'Three Storylines'

'Three Storylines' brings together three friends that have a common passion for creating art and the environments in which they live. The exhibition captures the poetry of place as seen by three artists, Glenda MacKay, Christine Upton and Barbara Pritchard.  Three Storylines explores their connection to place and the process of making and creating images of Riverina, Murray River and North East Victoria landscapes.

My works in this exhibition depicts the journeys that I take through the landscapes around may region and beyond. My depiction of landscape comes from memories, journeys and connections to particular places.

Glenda Mackay lives in Rutherglen in North East Victoria and creates aerial landscapes through painting, collage and assemblages. She references the grids of farmland and the grids of quilts to explore the connections between home, the land and a sense of place.   

Barbara Pritchard lives in Walwa in the foothills of the Snowy Mountains. Her work reflects a love of natural fibre textiles and fascination with the process of dyeing with natural dyes. Using leaves, berries, bark and seeds from the land on which she lives Barbara employs traditional and contemporary dyeing techniques to create textile pieces bringing a feeling of connection to the land.
