PETRICHOR – THE SMELL OF RAIN, a show of mixed media works by Annabel Nowlan. Recently exhibited as part of a larger solo show at the Wagga Wagga Art Gallery, these incredible works delve deep into the Australian landscape, exposing forgotten histories, human error, and focusing on the endless bounty of everyday aesthetic nuances.
“Nowlan’s ‘signature’ verdigris green, which permeates many of the works. Acerbic, it evokes processes of decay, and calls to illness, or to something not right. And, yet, the green feels somehow ecological in its tenor, insistent on vibrancy and life beyond the human.”
Each panel reflects a deep engagement with the natural (and unnatural) environment. Nowlan’s artistic gaze is drawn to physical sites of failed solider settlements, ruins of disastrous agricultural pursuits, massacre sites, botched mining incursions and aggressive GPS cropping agriculture.
