BLUE MOUNTAIN CANYON VASE SERIES
‘Campbell-Allen’s small canyon vases represent a nexus in which the space of intimacy and the vast spaces of the natural world can blend, opening a dialogue between the intimate corners of home and the seemingly limitless expanses of the Australian bush…. They reveal the grandeur of the Blue Mountains landscape not as replicas but, through an interaction of imagination and memory, as the symbols of a longer-for ‘elsewhere’ in nature far from the city’s crowded streets.
