Location: Khancoban
Statement: A tree-trunk sawn into parts, then untwisted and mirrored to create gates and passages. Perceiving, observing, discovering, exploring, developing, expanding, changing are key words that describe Twellman’s way of working. He is particularly interested in the tension between chaos and order and the way a work is a collaboration with material and place with its topography, character and peculiarities. ‘Passages’ was created on the farm of Stephen and Julia King in Walcha, New South Wales.
