In July 2011, two lecturers and 26 students from Griffith University’s Queensland College of Art travelled to the rural Central Queensland town of Biloela as part of a long-term goal to visually document stories pertinent to rural Australia.
The stories heard and found were varied and at times unexpected, all of them wonderful accounts of the human practice in rural Australia. It was a privilege to experience these accounts, and it is now our responsibility to communicate them to a wider audience. You are warmly invited next Friday evening to the launch of Finding Biloela, an exhibition curated by Angela Blakely and David Lloyd that attempts to bring together this manifold experience. We would be delighted if you would share this evening with us.
