Artwork Description

‘Ghost Bird’

The Bowerbird can throw his voice and imitate the sounds of people and other birds; things which aren’t there. This painting is an allegory centered on the motif of the habitat, the habit of acquisition and the ‘bowers of consciousness’.

Tillian lives and works in Bundanoon, a highland village bordering the vast gorges of the Morton National Park. He studied painting, film and photography at Alexander Mackie Art School, Sydney and more recently completed a Master of Creative Arts at Wollongong University. He has had five solo exhibitions and has participated in numerous group shows. Influenced by Indian ritual art, Aboriginal desert painting and Western art traditions, Tillian’s landscape paintings are visual narratives tracing passages and patterns in cyclic time and space. Works are constructed on site during lengthy sessions of immersion in the act of painting and the "happening of place".
