Forest for the Trees brings together four local artists whose work explores the interplay between nature and culture. Through photography, sculpture, painting and installation, the artists reveal the tensions and connections between society and the natural world. Artists Ian Johnston, Tanya Pixie Johnson, Barbara Maye and Nadine Stefan present diverse approaches, with references to science, history, spirituality and First Nations culture. By reflecting on our relationship with the natural world, perhaps we can come to a deeper understanding of our own place within it.
