THREADS THROUGH ART: AUSTRALIAN TAPESTRIES Celebration of Australian
art through the tapestry medium. Over the decades Australian artists have
collaborated with weavers and tapestry workshops in France, Portugal and since
1976, the Australian Tapestry Workshop.
Artists include Richard Larter, Janet Laurence, Ginger Riley Munduwalawala, Nell,
David Noonan, John Olsen, William Robinson, Gareth Sansom, Luke Sciberras,
Arlene Textaqueen and John Woseley. This exhibition is being developed with
Australian Tapestry Workshop and will feature tapestries from public and private
collections across Australia.
A BRAG exhibition curated by Emma Collerton.
HEATHER DUNN: PALETTE OF PLACE
For Bathurst based textile artist Heather Dunn, location – place – is important.
Palette of Place showcases tapestries inspired by the landscape and colours
of Hill End. Using dyes created from local organic materials, Dunn’s tapestries
comprise rich ochres, wattle yellow and subtle shades of green. Their designs,
drawn en plein air, reflect broad elements of the landscape, allowing the palette
of the place to become the heroes of the composition.
A BRAG Hill End AIR exhibition.
CAMIE LYONS: A PHYSICAL RESPONSE
In 2018 Camie Lyons participated in the Hill End Artists in Residence Program.
Taking inspiration from the lives of Hill End’s gold rush era inhabitants, Lyons
threw herself into physical making: dragging branches back the Haefligers' studio,
digging clay, and mark making with sticks, stones and found ochers. The resulting
work is the beginning of a new-found language for the artist, a rich seam of ‘gold’
which will inform her practice for many years to come. A BRAG Hill End Artist in
Residence exhibition.
SASSY PARK: LOOKING FOR GOLD
Sydney based artist Sassy Park undertook a Hill End Artist in Residency in May
2019, where she was struck with gold fever. With the help of a local guide, Park
found a gold nugget on her first panning trip to Tambaroora Creek. The search for
gold shapes much of the history of Hill End. The ‘Holtermann Nugget’ – the largest
mass of gold ever found – was discovered in the area in 1872. With the fortune he
made from it Bernhardt Holtermann commissioned a photographic record of the
people of Hill End. Using the Holtermann Collection as a reference point, Park has
created a series of ceramics responding to hertime at Hill End. A BRAG Hill End
Artist in Residence exhibition.

decreasing demand for water and ultimately lead to economical savings.
