‘From a Northern Canopy’, showcases work by artists Daniel O’Shane (Kuku Yalanji, Miriam Mer, and Kulkagal) and Michael Boiyool Anning (Yidinji). This exhibition represents an exciting point of alignment between two artists at different ends of the professional career spectrum, one emerging and one established. Anning’s boldly patterned rainforest timber shields and fire-makers and O’Shane’s intricate and detailed vinylcut prints both draw upon deep traditions to inform their contemporary expression.
‘From a Northern Canopy’ also represents a first-time collaboration between Onespace Gallery and Canopy Art Centre and Indigenous Research Consultant Trish Barnard. Our sincere thanks to Trish Barnard, Gallery Manager of Canopy Art Centre Paloma Ramos and Master Printmaker Theo Tremblay of Editions Tremblay Print Workshop.
The exhibition will be available to the public in the gallery and online from Wednesday 23 August 2017 and continues to Saturday 16 September 2017.
Please join for the opening night on Friday 25 August 2017 from 6–8pm.
