SCULPTURE,
an essay on Palmer
by Greg Johns
Read ->>
Palmer, rainshadow country in the Adelaide hills is a fragile landscape reminiscent of the Flinders Ranges. This is not the "pristine" country of the Fleurea Peninsula. It is tougher, but beautiful in a sense that much of Australia is; where life and death are close neighbours. Somehow this formulae produces dramatic landscapes. To sit on the Southern rock escarpment and see the Murray in the distance and perhaps Lake Alexandria / The Coorong in the far distance is a movvving experience. This is big sky country too, where you can see forever.
