YAVA Gallery is proud to announce its latest exhibition, Art of the Wild, a breathtaking showcase of works inspired by nature’s raw, untamed beauty.
This exhibition brings together talented wildlife artists who capture the essence of the animals and birds, offering viewers a journey into the heart of the natural world.
Exhibition Dates: 23 January – 9 March.
Location: YAVA Gallery, 252 Maroondah Highway, Healesville.
Curated with a deep appreciation for the wild, Art of the Wild highlights the diverse landscapes, wildlife, and ecosystems that inspire and ground us.
This exhibition explores the intricate relationship between humans and the environment through a range of mediums including oils, watercolour, colour pencils, pastels, scratchboard and mixed media.
“Art of the Wild is a call to reconnect with the natural world,” curator Reggie Clark said.
“The works featured in this exhibition remind us of the awe and wonder that nature inspires, while also highlighting the need to cherish and protect it.”
Healesville is only one hour from Melbourne in the heart of the Yarra Valley which is renowned for its fantastic wine, food and scenery and also the home of the Healesville Sanctuary.
