Using custom tools and jigs, Mackay-based artist Tracey Robb’s crochet practice centres on the fauna and flora of tropical Queensland. For this exhibition, Robb has applied her skills and experimentation in free-form crochet to the world of lichen. With scientific accuracy and a playful heart, the artist has created a large-scale, immersive display celebrating ecological diversity.
