Chasing Soft Shadows by Elizabeth Lawson-Zell explores the link between humanity, nature and wellbeing in a series of works created from repurposed paper that will be on display at Goombungee’s Rosalie Gallery from April 16 to May 18, 2025.
Natural dyes and fragments from foraged dried flowers, leaves and other dried organic matter are imbued into the paper constructions.
These works were made in response to local sites using repurposed materials with the aim of investigating the connection between humanity and the environment.
The works invite the viewer to consider the inspiration we draw from natural environments, which is well documented as contributing to wellbeing.
Elizabeth is a Toowoomba-based artist with a background in design, education, and facilitation in community and wellbeing settings.
The exhibition’s Meet the Artist event runs from 10.30am to 12.30pm on Saturday, April 26, 2025.
