With the aim of understanding and appreciating the

elements of our 'oneness in humanity', and the beauty of

individual traditions, inter-state artist Christine Harrison

presents a culmination of on-site work developed with

international indigenous cultures to the end of 2011.

This exhibition showcases significant landmarks and

'evolving' vistas from around the artists' homelands in

coastal and rural Central Queensland. Dichotomy of Place

invites audiences to contemplate the artworks as windows

into this changing landscape. Artslink Queensland's Exhibition Touring Program brings quality visual arts into regional and remote areas, supporting Queensland artists and communities in celebrating their creativity and diversity.

Inspired by the calligraphic line

practiced by artist Ian

Fairweather who produced most

of his paintings while living on

Bribie Island, this exhibition by

Joe Furlonger, Pamela See and

Jun Chen explores notions of

trans-cultural expression.Toured by Moreton Bay Regional Council.

A highly technical exhibition

showcasing the fusion of art and

science by The Noosa Botanical Art

the plant in watercolour and a variety
