Dark side of the Road
1 may — 31 may 2013
Braidwood artist Ray Leggott's snapshot exhibition 'Dark side of the Road' removes the tinted-glasses to reveal a landscape as impacted by the hand of man as any cityscape. Mountains are garlanded withcommunications towers, paddocks are jammed with monocrops pushed to the horizon, gullies are scoured by erosion and animals lay decimated by the roadside.
The ten works that form 'Dark side of the Road' appear cheery with bright colours and vibrant collages created from glossy lifestyle magazines, but their enthusiasm masks a dark heart that we can see from the roadside if we look beyond our blinkered preconceptions.
