2004 Finalist

Lisa Cahill East Sydney, New South Wales, Australia



'Dry'


Kiln formed and wheel cut glass
45 H x 95 W x .6 D cm


Washed-out opaque creams distil the essence of the harsh, dry Australian landscape and the effects of the intense sun. Flat panels mimic the landscape around Canberra and the vast plains of Lake George. With minimal decoration evocative of the sparse nature of the Australian bush and an abstracted contour of the mountain ranges that traverses through the work, a scene is created that allows for contemplation and meditation.
