Rosemary O’Hearn’s exhibition depicts the vast isolation and harsh conditions of outback Australia. The works include those created on location while field-working, and those made in the artist’s studio. As such, the mediums are varied – from calico and handmade paper to soil and photographs.

Visitors must comply with Umbrella’s COVID19 Safety Plan and directives.
