Overview
Perc Tucker Regional Gallery
20 APRIL – 9 JUNE 2024
Memories are triggered by all our senses. We can be transported by a song, a scent, an old photograph; and find distant moments of our lives surround us briefly. It is more poignant when the memory takes you to people lost and places long ago altered.
Early memories of John Nesirky's time in North Queensland are underpinned by the sounds of insects during hot hikes to cool off in a creek or swimming hole. The tropical nighttime soundtrack. He is fascinated by the endless complex variety. The structures that allow these creatures to sing out leave ears ringing.
