​HABITAT

HABITAT - Opens 8th September 

HABITAT is an impressive exhibition highlighting the talents of our artists.  From deep in the forest to coastal walks, these new works are thought provoking and reflective of the fragility of the natural habitats for our wildlife.  Recent disasters have inspired many of the artists to explore the impacts of bushfires and floods, whilst other artists have focused on the wildlife, highlighting that without their natural habitats, these animals would become scarce. 

Incredible works on paper, collage and mixed media on panels. oil and acrylic works, glass works and ceramics, make up this exhibition that also marks the 2nd birthday for Mist Gallery.  A feat in itself, as we have also just endured nearly three years of incredible disrupt to life as we know it. 

We shine a spotlight on JOHN CORBY this month, a local artist from Pottsville. John is a prolific and popular artist in the gallery that captures the daily life of the Tweed Region. Sparkling oceans, shaded dune walks, and families enjoying the local environment. John's take on HABITAT is more about our daily connection with nature.

Description

 

I am working on a series called ‘Sanctuary Trees’, where I am drawing those gnarly, grand and very aged trees that support many of our riverbanks. I spotted this Black Bean kayaking upstream. I have come to know some of these trees well, each with its own unique structures and beauty. This Black Bean struck me deeply, with its powerful female forms and the powerful and complicated strength of the root system, which so steadfastly holds and filters the riverbank. The shade from its branches provide shade for me under the hot sun and cool the river for life below. Bright yellow and red flowers grow along the stem, and the very large seed pods (often up to 25cm x 5cm) often bob along the river finding the next location to seed and germinate.

There is nothing quite like the sound of a bird call. We have so many amazing birds in Australia. All seem to have their own personality, some elegant, some cheeky, playful and dominating. These works are rejoicing in their personalities and characteristics. 


These works are the first works I have produced with a wooden layered effect, I have also etched into the wood to give a more tactile experience with the surface. I hope you like my furry friends!

Fiery Sunset - Heidi Ledwell

A$1,800.00

Sold out

Winter time can serve us the most spectacular sunsets over the Tweed River. 

As the sun goes down, the Yellow Tailed Black Cockatoos fly overhead,

screeching and flapping their enormous wings, heading to higher ground for the night. 

These prehistoric looking birds fly down in the morning to spend their day feasting on Banksia

cones and Sheoak nuts.

‘Regeneration’


The yellow Tailed Black Cockatoo plays an important roll in landscape regeneration. As they graze on the Banksiasand the Casuarina trees, they smash them to pieces with their powerful beaks, allowing the wind to spread the seed.

The flocks that form with one or two mid-winter, can reach 20-30 birds by December. However this year I have noticed a drop in the number of birds flying over. The last couple of years have been harrowing on wildlife, with fires, then floods.

Lets hope numbers can regenerate in years to come.

‘Sunday Afternoon 1 & 2’


I was sitting in my van, waiting for my son to come in from the surf, rain was hitting the windscreen.

A white splash catches my eye, a humpback breaching. The mothers are bringing their calves south, hugging

and exploring the coastline. In front of the whales are small fins, dolphins, darting along in front of the whales nose.

Movement catches my eye to the right, Yellow Tailed Black Cockatoos take flight. I look out to the horizon and as the sun sinks,

the storm clouds turn pink, large balls of floss releasing their moisture into the ocean. The scene is one of dynamic fluidity.

‘Hightide Hunters’


Pippi Birds or Sooty Oyster Catchers shuffle in and out with the ebb of the waves.

They use their bright orange beak to dig through the sand for a tasty shellfish.

Lately I have noticed so much more micro plastic, pieces of plastic broken

into small pieces. These float on the surface of the ocean, collecting at the high tide line.

These small pieces are mistaken by birds and turtles as food, collecting in their stomachs, eventually leading to their demise.
