Embark on a visual journey with Australian artists Georg Whelan and Seamus Platt as they unveil "Halbes-Halbes (Half-Half)," a collaborative art exhibition journeying through the landscapes of human identity 

Through their respective mediums of painting and documentary photography, Whelan and Platt delve into the intricate relationship between individuals and their surroundings in the 'Sunshine State.' 

Whelan's work is, inspired by the pioneering wildlife photography of Richard and Cherry Kearton, explore the paradoxical nature of Queenslanders' connection to nature. With a post-colonial lens, Whelan's illustrations reveal the tension between a desire to dominate and an inherent symbiosis with the natural world, inviting viewers to reflect on their existence and purpose amidst the Queensland landscape.

In contrast, Platt's documentary photographs weave together a narrative born from personal archives, merging imagery from Queensland's queer party scene with the karst concrete of Australian skateparks. Through this juxtaposition, Platt navigates the complexities of gender expression and identity, unearthing unexpected parallels between the seemingly disparate realms.

Experience the convergence of art and introspection as Whelan and Platt invite you to explore the dynamic interplay of human identity against the backdrop of Queensland's diverse landscapes.
