Plateau

This work examines the textures, stories & pneuma of the Tasmanian landscape. I am fascinated by this place and the stories it holds. The more time spent here the landscape reveals itself beyond the aesthetic.
As you make your way through the meandering roads in central Tasmania, the dense ferns open up to a windswept plateau. The hardy native shrubs, remnants of trees and vast grassland lead to the entrance of the Cradle Mountain national park. This beautiful landscape changes in tone and texture through the year. This work follows a cold day in the depths of winter.

Chloe is an emerging artist making abstract works inspired by the Tasmanian landscape. Her work is motivated by and reflects both the vastness and intimacy of place. Growing up along Kanamaluka/Tamer River has provided an endless source for artistic exploration. While the landscapes of my childhood occur frequently I am also drawn to various landscapes across Lutruwita including the southern coastline and the majestic beauty of Kunanyi Mt. Wellington above Nipaluna Hobart where I am currently based.

I work in both Acrylic on canvas or wood panel and Gouache on paper.
