Scenes from Gadigal & Surrounds: Tahlia Henderson is an exhibition that vibrantly captures the detail and beauty of Sydney’s bush landsacapes. Each composition is a detailed record of the bushland explored withihn and surrounding suburban Sydney – Gadigal. The unique layers of foilage, rocks, colours, textures and biodiversity of each place are forever changing  – either seasonall, or with the intensity of fires and floods that have increased with climate inaction. These battered landscapes remain resilient for now and continue to provide and protect inhabitants away from suburbia.

It is a celebration of the richness, abundance, diversity and beauty of these sites. Take the time to soak up these vistas. Acknowledge the land on which we stand and do not take this for granted.
