One of my most adventurous exhibitions, Chasing the Disappeared opened at Tweed River Art Gallery on Saturday 20 April and continued through til 8 September 2013.
An eight metre long drawing of repeated markings of the Tasmanian tiger are symbolically used to represent the passing of the first generation of Italian Immigrants which came to Australian in the 1950′s.
