Open Studio

Bush Baroque’s Open Studio is open at 10:00am – 4:00pm on 12 November at 19 Folingsby Street, Weston.

Ximena’s current studio practice investigates landscape and topography as an expression of location and identity. Bush Baroque is the personal re-interpretation of Canberra’s landscape through a baroque lens, surrounded by centuries-old eucalyptus trees. In this body of work, Ximena returns to the Eucalyptus leaves that started her Australian practice 18 years ago. Reflecting on the beauty, the terror and the inspiration found in landscape. Visitors can expect an exhibition of prints complimented with jewellery, including her signature roll-printed bracelets

DESIGN Canberra acknowledges the Ngunnawal people as the traditional custodians of the ACT and surrounding areas. We honour and respect their ongoing cultural and spiritual connections to this country and the contribution they make to the life of this city and this region. We aim to respect cultural heritage, customs and beliefs of all Indigenous people.
