Artwork Description

How to express the colossal presence of an object in focus, and the mysterious collusion of all its chimerical counterpoints?

'Chimerical' presents landscape as an evolving, animate ecology rather than a fixed view of place. Water, vegetation, sky, and geological forms dissolve into one another, creating a visual language of continual transformation. Organic shapes suggest leaves, bodies, masks, and imagined beings without settling into a single interpretation, inviting viewers to navigate the space through intuition as much as observation.

The composition draws upon traditions of lyrical abstraction while engaging contemporary ecological thinking, where landscapes are understood as dynamic networks of relationship rather than passive scenery. Sweeping rhythms of blue and green evoke water and atmosphere, while vibrant passages of crimson, ochre, and violet introduce moments of energy and renewal. The luminous circular form near the horizon functions simultaneously as sun, symbol, and focal point, reinforcing the work's mythic resonance.

Artist Bio

Tillian lives and works in Bundanoon, a highland village bordering the vast gorges of the Morton National Park. He studied painting, film and photography at Alexander Mackie Art School, Sydney and more recently completed a Master of Creative Arts at Wollongong University. He has had five solo exhibitions and has participated in numerous group shows. Influenced by Indian ritual art, Aboriginal desert painting and Western art traditions, Tillian’s landscape paintings are visual narratives tracing passages and patterns in cyclic time and space. Works are constructed on site during lengthy sessions of immersion in the act of painting and the "happening of place".
