University of Queensland Art Museum is currently hosting an exhibition of paintings, sculpture and works on paper by Judy Watson. The work was made by Judy during a residency on Heron Island earlier this year. Twenty one etchings form part of this new body of work. Judy has collaborated with Dian Dharmansjar in Cairns to make some of the plates, while Jonathan Tse at Queensland College of Art has made extensive colour proofs (seen at left, above). BHE staff will now be editioning the plates in January and February. Judy conducted a floortalk in mid-November and is seen here in front of a display of her zinc plates.
