Taking up residence in Nagambie at Jacobsons Outlook, overlooking Lake Nagambie, artists will display their exhibitions all summer long.
The first artist to set up shop in ARTBOX this summer will be Rosa Purbrick. A well-known local figure from both her art and her family’s connection to the Tahbilk Winery, her exhibition will be on display from Friday, December 6.
Ms Purbrick describes her exhibition, REFLECTIONS as a visualisation and exploration of the world around here, in the Nagambie Lakes region and while travelling into the Australian outback.
Strathbogie Shire Council Mayor Claire Ewart-Kennedy said Ms Purbrick’s work shows her joy in playing with patterns and colours.
“The contours and formations of Rosa’s landscape work reflects the Strathbogie region, along with the interplay of light and shade through the trees and is integral to this collection she calls REFLECTIONS,” she said.
“This artist has exhibited internationally, and she has works in many private collections, so we are delighted to be able to see this work out of her studio.”
The exhibition opens on Friday, December 6 and will be on display at ARTBOX until Thursday, January 2, 2025.
Ms Purbrick will officially open the exhibition on Saturday, December 7 from 10am until 2pm for those wishing to meet the face behind the art.
Following her exhibition, two more artists will take over ARTBOX for the summer.
