Visit the Gallery
While you are on campus, you are welcome to visit the Art Gallery and view the current exhibition. DRYLAND: Pamela Kowenhoven is an exhibition of multi-layered and richly textured collages constructed from metals and malthoid (the bitumen-coated material found in the bottom of old rain-water tanks). These artworks offer a wry look at the Australian landscape, and talk to us about restricted water supply and how we are literally “scraping the bottom of the tank”.
