Artist Leonie Chinn has returned to Kingaroy Art Gallery, but this time she has filled the main gallery with a solo exhibition of recent works.<\/p>\n

Leonie was last in Kingaroy 12 months ago as part of the “All The Bees Are [Not] Dying” exhibition, a collection of works by seven Brisbane artists capturing their reactions to climate change.<\/p>\n

This time around, Leonie has presented works that explore the destructive consequences of a human-centred point of view on the natural world.<\/p>\n

There are insects and landscapes, including a view from ‘Bethany’ painted after her stay there last year.<\/p>\n

” ‘Bethany’ was gorgeous and was so rich in history,” she said.<\/p>\n

Leonie said her works depicting “other earth beings” reflected the writings by Australian environmental philosopher Val Plumwood.<\/p>\n

Plumwood, who died in 2008, explored the separation between humans and nature, and the idea embedded in many cultures which viewed nature as simply a resource.<\/p>\n

In Gallery 3, Wooroolin artist Diana Bolton has an exhibition entitled “My Front Door”.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The birds and flowers are inspired by the world around her.<\/p>\n

“During the last flood I started painting the wetland birds that inhabited our place; ducks, herons, rails, coots and the swans, spoonbills, magpie geese and many more that had migrated to the water. This started my journey on painting birds,” she said.<\/p>\n

Diana also has a display of hand-painted silk scarves on show, which – amazingly – she pops into the microwave to finish!<\/p>\n
