Artist Talk: Beth Thornber

Join us for an artist talk with Beth Thornber, Wiradjuri artist and curator, to discuss It’s flamin hot darl, Thornber's newest large-scale painting commission.

Thornber will discuss her practice and how she considers existing structures cemented in everyday life and the applications of this lens to reimagine ideas of sacredness, boundaries, common ownership, and shared responsibility.

Free event, all welcome.

Beth Thornber was born in Corowa, a small town on the banks of the Murray River in NSW.

A First Nations artist and curator of the Wiradjuri people. Her multi-disciplinary practice employs a visual alphabet of animal, plant, and human motifs to consider themes of historical and environmental impact on the post-colonial landscape. Thornber’s paintings consider existing structures cemented in everyday life and applies this lens to reimagine ideas of sacredness, boundaries, common ownership, and shared responsibility.
