Gondwana Horizon
10AM to 5PM
Venue: Gallery Manora
Art Weaves is proud to present it’s inaugural exhibition GONDWANA HORIZON at Gallery Manora, in Bangalore INDIA.
Acclaimed Australian Ceramic Artist Barbara Campbell-Allen, through this body of work communicates her personal experiences of a remote and vast Australian landscape evoking ancient rock forms, rivers and the skies of a landmass that broke away from Gondwanaland which stretched across the southern hemisphere millions of years ago. This installation comprises three essential themes: Fossil Rocks series, the Old Rivers Series and the Cloud Series, expressive layers of narrative and form.
Barbara Campbell-Allen is an Australian ceramic artist working in the subtle world of long wood firing. Her art practice engages with landscape as a constant source of inspiration. “Campbell-Allen has exhibited in scores of group shows. Her work has been collected in Australia and abroad, and publicized in the leading ceramics journals in Australia and the United States. Formally and conceptually distinctive, Campbell-Allen’s work is distinguished by strength, restraint and often richly detailed surfaces. The highly personal aesthetic she has developed eloquently evokes the two powerful wellsprings of her motivation – her intimate appreciation of the art of wood-firing and her deep emotional connection with natural landscapes. Through the refinement of her artistic process these two are embodied as one.” Jan Howlin
