NOVEMBER 2022 : CANBERRA : NGA : Cressida Campbell



A new exhibition at the National Gallery - everyone is raving about it.
Cressida Campbell (born 1960) is a Sydney woodcut artist who has produced a huge body of work.



With Ros, my sister, and her friends, Heather and Alexis.



Every piece was a meticulous wood cut and often the original print accompanied it. She talks about beauty in the ordinary and much of her scenes are from her homes and gardens and Sydney views.





These tryptics are large and detailed. Incredible to realise the time, effort and skill to produce these wood cuts.



Two enjoyable surprises this week, this exhibition and a fabulous concert on Sunday as well.
