I’m thrilled to share that my work ‘Old Mutawintji Gorge 2’ was recently acquired by Wagga Wagga Art Gallery for inclusion in their Margaret Carnegie Print Collection where it will be cared for in great company.

Founded in 1980 through a generous donation by local patron Margaret Carnegie, the collection now comprises over 1,400 original prints by leading Australian artists including Bea Maddock, Fred Williams, Noel Counihan, Arthur Boyd, Fiona Hall, Judy Watson and Kathleen Petyarre. Selections are regularly exhibited in the Margaret Carnegie Gallery at the entrance to Wagga Wagga Art Gallery.

This 168cm x 228cm multi-panel watercolour monotype work from 2023 was made in response to my experiences as a visitor in Mutawintji National Park, on Pantjikali, Wanyuparku, Wilyakali, and Malyangapa Country as part of the Broken Hill City Art Gallery Open Cut Commission.
