Visual Art

Translated landscapes

Landscapes take shape within and around our bodies and sense of self. They have the ability to influence our decisions and feelings towards the relationships we hold and care for. How we choose to translate those feelings and responses can provide safe spaces to better understand them. Through painting, drawing and embroidery works, each artist in Translated landscapes explores ways of making space for interpretations of their relationships and their surroundings.

This exhibition is curated by Richelle Bear Hat and presented in partnership with Indefinite Arts Centre.
