Anna Louise Richardson | The Good

On tour : -

The Good is a major solo exhibition by artist Anna Louise Richardson whose practice is centered around rural life, embedded in the experience and drama of everyday reality. Working primarily in charcoal and graphite, Richardson’s work explores ideas of intergenerational exchange, parenthood and identity based on her experiences of living and working on a multi-generation beef cattle farm in rural Australia.

The Good emerges from Richardson’s broader investigations into the complex relationships between humans and the natural world, tinged by grief and the competing demands of nurturing new life. In a world increasingly defined by division and hardship, Richardson’s work points to the necessary act of radical optimism needed to seek goodness in all things.

Museums & Galleries of NSW has teamed up with ART ON THE MOVE to extend the tour of The Good by Anna Louise Richardson across regional Western Australia.
