Echoes from the Forest | 2022
22 October - 19 November 2022
Art Collective, Perth
New paintings by Nigel Hewitt are made from ash samples collected from bushfire sites across Tasmania. The tones of the ash vary depending on the vegetation and the differing temperatures of the wild fires. The artist brings these charred organic compounds together to create pictorial, almost photographic, tributes to landscape. They are a plea for action. A call from the forest, awaiting a response.
