These works, created as the world was responding to the COVID-19 pandemic, depict the unrestricted breadth and vitality of the natural world.
From the ancient escarpments linking waterfalls, rivers and floodplains, to the detail of nectar-filled flowers, and the expanses of space, Open Spaces 2020 serves to remind us of the many ways in which the flora and fauna inhabit the natural world regardless of the concerns of humankind.
Drawing on the landscapes of Northern Territory’s Top End, Gough again demonstrates his appreciation of the detail and nuance of the natural world. From the cosmic alignment of planets, to the delicate antennae of butterflies, Gough reminds the viewer of the enormity, diversity, and inter-relatedness of the universe.
