Author Description

Life Lines draws heavily on Mackay-based artist Leonie Wood's relationship with the curvilinear line of the female form, showcasing works that skilfully weave the contrasting strength and softness of the feminine spirit. Wood's life drawings in ink, pen, charcoal, and graphite, and her hand-drawn imagery on ceramics, produced in collaboration with her late husband and renowned ceramicist Rick Wood, perfectly illustrate her ability to harness this dynamic force.This publication accompanies the exhibition, Life Lines, held at Perc Tucker Regional Gallery, Townsville, 27 November 2020 - 7 February 2021
