New Terrain: Contemporary Landscapes

Terms 1-4
New Terrain: Contemporary Landscapes

New Terrain: Contemporary Landscapes

From the literal to the abstract, scenic landscapes or booming skylines, artworks about place allow us to extend the moment and reimagine new, familiar and unknown worlds. During this workshop, students will respond to Collection works that speak to the past, present and future landscapes of the Gold Coast and wider Australia.

Inspired by touring works in the NGA ‘sharing the National Collection’ exhibition, as well as HOTA Collection works, students will explore qualities of contemporary art as they develop their own depiction of place and storytelling.
