This exhibition is the result of a wilderness residency at Skullbone Plains, part of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area. Participating artists immersed themselves in the ancient and remote landscape and were given scientific interpretation by Tasmanian Land Conservancy (TLC) staff to deepen their experience of the reserve.

Initiated by the TLC, a not-for-profit organisation protecting private land for conservation in Tasmania, the exhibition aims to raise awareness of the need for long-term protection of biodiversity. The exhibition is made possible through the generous support of the Purves Environmental Fund and the Purryburry Trust.
