Artwork Description

This painting is based on vintage postcards that I collect. These postcards purport to show the typical Aussie family holiday, including visits to Big Things and theme parks. Picking out elements of these postcards and giving them a bit of a remix creates some very different stories.

Old-school tourist attractions such as Big Things and family-run dolphin pools are becoming emblems of the past. Heritage listing or repurposing mark these things out as being of another time. The qualities that define these places โ€“their size, their promise of communion with nature on some level โ€“ would be defined as mythic in a less kitschy context.
