One Work is the result of collaboration between artists Frances Alter, Stuart Boggs, Rowen Matthews, and Robyn Jackson who were inspired by the landscape and environment at Digger's Camp in the Yuraygir National Park, between Yamba and Coffs Harbour. The exhibition's centrepiece is a massive multi-panel painting that mixes up work of each artist to create a single artwork responding to the site. Each artist contributed towards creating a visceral impression of the rugged coastal environment and seascape. The work established a new innovative methodology for art practice that challenged notions of single authorship of artworks by artists. Dr Frances Alter conducted the creative practice research throughout the development of the project and this involved recordings of planning meetings, videography of artist's practice on location, and final presentations of research outcomes in a public lecture alongside the One Work exhibition held at the New England Regional Art Museum in Armidale from October to November 2015. |
