About the Exhibition: The Cave. A River. An Island

Ross Andrews’s latest exhibition explores the intersection of modern media disinformation and ancient allegory through expressive landscapes. Inspired by the deceptions of Plato's Cave, the artworks reflect on personal and environmental journeys of discovery. 

They highlight what we hear (and don’t hear) about climate change on Australia’s ecosystems.


Exhibitions run from 9 August to 1 September
