Book of Nature

This exhibition brings the outdoors indoors as artist Darryl Gish showcases a world of intricate details and vibrant landscapes.

To express light, colour, texture, form and space of forest ecosites, Darryl Gish (Dip '76, Printmaking) used his forest knowledge and experience to focus on forest characteristics. This included trees’ age, dominance, suppression, density, spatial distribution, health, vigour, interdependency and physiology of forest flora and fauna, and soil and topographic features.

Gish hopes that viewers “meditate on his works to reach a sense of peace and well-being as one does while walking in a forest.”
