Peta Dzubiel

Peta Dzubiel's current painting practice explores the tradition of landscape with a focus on the temporal; the idea that places remember their past whilst always being at the mercy of human intervention and other forces of change. As an expansion on ideas of ‘country’ and ‘place’ she also look at landscape in the context of nomadic subcultures such as the travelling carnival and, indirectly, the legacy and spirit of early pioneers and explorers- people in search of a place to dwell, if only on the fringes.
