Tank 4
Hannah Parker’s Shetland ancestry inspires imagery and storytelling that explore questions about identity, living in a colonised country.
Works from Shetland is a body of work developed from a residency at The Booth, Scalloway, Shetland Islands in 2024. The residency provided an opportunity for Hannah to immerse herself in her ancestral homelands, to research, write, and develop new watercolours about connection to place.
Hannah Parker is a Cairns based artist and printmaker, a frequent exhibitor at the Tanks Arts Centre, and has been an active support arts worker for Indigenous Art Centres in Far North Queensland for decades.
Launch: 5pm, Friday 30 May – all welcome.
Workshops: Saturdays 7, 14, 21 June ($35pp)
