The Tapestries

 

Australia Uncovered

Australia: in naturalibus (Australia Uncovered) Naming the Land - myth and reality are often hard to separate when a new land is discovered and named, and past experience is applied to the present. The whole constitutes more than the sum of its parts. This is a humorous look at nomenclature, familiar sayings and taking ourselves too seriously. Sixteen tapestries are accompanied by a Latin saying with reference to Australia. 1996 - 1999 various sizes approx 55 x 70cm
