Description
Pete Martin's latest series of aerial works engages us to reflect upon a new era in landscape to be considered alongside Australia's earlier masters of rural life in the outback.
Work from this series gained him recognition as a finalist in the Cromwell Art Prize in 2005.
These exquisitely executed paintings invite us to reflect upon our existence in this vast and enduring landscape.
Like the challenges that exist for the pastoralist, Martin's use of shadow and light invites us to narrate a story existing in our own imagination.
