After the rain.
Escaping a 42 deg Celsius (107.6 F) day, I went to check out the After the Rain exhibition at the Australian National (air-conditioned) Gallery.
When the rains end, creeks and rivers run full. Suddenly, deserts bloom with all the colours of the rainbow as new life emerges. As Tony Albert, artistic director of the Fifth National Indigenous Art Triennial, says, “After the rain there are always new beginnings.”
There is a very good review of the exhibit here.
It was one of those times when you enter with absolutely no expectations, and end up having a great experience. If you are in the area….I can highly recommend (and it’s free).
