Lake St Clair

The focus for the 2011 Osmosis group is Lake St Clair. The calm lake surface hides the extreme depth that it plummets to and its significance as the source of the Derwent is understated. Reserved through the actions of individuals in the early 1900's the area offers a glimpse of an environment shaped by glacial action and a cold temperate climate. It is part of the Cradle Mountain - Lake St Clair National Park which is a part of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage area.

As a group of female artists we have been engaging with the lake and its surrounds over the past year in a quest to develop artwork in response to the location and the history it encompasses. Culminating in an exhibition that engages a range of media at the Long Gallery, Salamanca Arts Centre, the show will be from August 24 - 31, 2011.

We will post events as they happen on the news page, and each artist will have a page with an artist statement and example of work as the exhibition approaches.
