Daniel Boyd
An exhibition to help you find your way.
Overview
When you look at a map — whether on a piece of paper, or on the screen of your phone — what do you see? Colours, shapes and lines? A way to help you get from point A to point B?
Driven by his ongoing interest in the field — and approaching the subject through the intersection of colonial history, European modernism and its connections to the Pacific — Daniel Boyd sees something different. He spies not just a directional tool, but a key for unlocking land, sea, sky and the great unknown.
In his first solo exhibition in Queensland, the Cairns-born, Sydney-based artist combines his fascination with his practice to make a new set of charcoal and oil-based images. His amalgam of complex layers of dots and simple line drawings nod to ceremonial mark-making and navigational charts, while also dissecting the relationship between the western and indigenous art of Australia.
