The Substation/​ Artist/​Beth Thornber/

Beth Thornber is a First Nations artist of the Wiradjuri people based in the Border/North East Victoria region. Her practice employs a visual alphabet of animal, plant and human motifs to question themes of impact: historical, environmental and human impact.

Thornber’s practice considers the existing colonial structures cemented in everyday life and applies this lens to reimagine ideas of sacredness, boundaries, common ownership and shared responsibility.
