'My main inspiration comes from what is directly around me... I remember combinations of colours I see in houses, pictures, gardens, buildings or sculptures here and round the world.'
Exhibition Overview
Cressida Campbell is among Australia’s most significant contemporary artists working with painting and printmaking. Directly inspired by her surroundings, for over 40 years the Gadigal/Sydney-based artist has transformed commonplace experiences from her life into single edition prints and painted woodblocks.
Combining keen observation with a delicacy of line, Campbell’s woodblock paintings and prints capture the overlooked beauty of the everyday. Through her views of a working harbour or burnt bushland, an arrangement of nasturtiums or a plate of ripening persimmons, the artist celebrates the transitory moments of life.
This survey exhibition at the National Gallery presents the depth and virtuosity of Campbell’s work, extending from intimate interior views through to panoramic coastal landscapes. It is accompanied by an exhibition catalogue that features writing from curators, artists, poets and other voices.
We invite you to leverage the benefits of the exhibition by joining us in the promotion of the exclusive Canberra event to bring tourism to the region.
