'Seems Like a Good Idea at the Time' by DEAN REILLY  "Much of our early colonial history is riddled with absurdity. Explorers doomed for failure through bad planning miscommunication and a disconnect and discomfort with the landscape. Like a fish out of water or a naked white man on a chartreuse camel, the new can sometimes appear bizarre." - Dean Reilly 'Seems Like a Good Idea at the Time' 40.5 x 51cm, 43.5 x 54cm framed acrylic on canvas $ 1,400.00

"The great gold rush has never really ended it has just become corporatized, legalised, monopolised, justified and naturalised. Fly into the heart of Australia and you will see men in uniform moving about in airports, to go and dig up the earth to provide security and pleasure for their families." - DEAN REILLY  Gold 1, 2 and 3 on display and available now

"Black swan theory suggests that the black swan is a metaphor that describes an event that comes as a complete surprise.

DEAN REILLY'S 'Past Present Future' 51 x 40.5cm, 54 x 43.5cm framedacrylic on canvas $ 1,400.00 ​ ​"The past, present, and future is governed and informed by our feelings towards the landscape you are in. Whether you see it as majestic natural wilderness, a wild mongrel scrub to be developed or sacred country, is up to you. However, mostly it is inherited through the stories we hear and the experiences we have that form our views of the landscape and ultimately the world." - Dean  ​ ​​​​

DEAN REILLY'S Solo Exhibition 'The Landscape is Beyond Me' is on now until September 30th.  ​ ​"In Australia, space and place stage stories torn between absurdity and beauty, the knowable and unknowable, and the sublime. My experience towards landscape comes from my internal feelings and experiences of country through observation, study, and from the dreams I had as a little boy growing up on the land. Landscape can be viewed as a majestic natural garden, a wild mongrel scrub or sacred country, for me however, landscape represents a strange combination, torn between the heroic and the absurd. I think it is the absolute hopelessness of the situation that we can find joy, connection and hope in the landscape that is beyond me." - DEAN REILLY  ​ ​​​​ #birdpainting
