Artwork Description

The Kimberley; Landscape

0.0 x 0.0

A remote, rugged and beautiful region in the far north of Western Australia with varied and often spectacular scenery. The series of images of Limestone Cliffs in Giekie Gorge were taken during a late afternoon boat cruise along the Fitzroy River through the gorge. The bleached effect on the lower part of the cliffs is the result of submergence of that part of the cliffs during the annual wet season floods. The sculptural forms of the cliffs are the result of solution weathering of the limestone during rain and submergence. Images in the group entitled 'Limestone Cliffs in Giekie Gorge' won Finalist / Certificate of Excellence status in the 32nd Artavita contest, Covers of International Contemporary Masters 13, June 2019. The image "Stairway to the Moon; Roebuck Bay, Broome" won finalist status in the Circle-Arts Competition to exhibit at Spectrum Miami in December 2019
