Early May and the remnant humidity from the wet season fades with the oncoming southeast winds. The great dry season pilgrimage entails careful preparation: First, camping gear is retrieved from the deep recesses of the shed, 4x4 vehicles are scrutinized, recovery gear is checked and portable fridges tested. Next, ring friends and family and coordinate days of holiday. Finally, place a cross on the calendar and let the countdown begin.

Sixteen months have passed since Linda Joy held her inaugural exhibition. Few would argue that the paintings successfully highlighted the reasons we reside in the Territory. Whether it is lying in a swag under the stars, witnessing a bushfire or climbing the imposing escarpment, the power and wonder of the Territory landscape is epitomized by Linda’s skill and imagination. This November Linda will present her second exhibition that cements her position as a leading artist in the Northern Territory. If you need to be reminded of why you live here or why you visited, you need to see this exhibition.

Opening 16 November - 21 December 2018
