The Residues presents new works by Onya McCausland, exploring landscapes transformed by extraction, industry and environmental change.
McCausland creates her paintings from materials collected from industrial land, mine tailings and waste dams. Through burning, milling and refining, these residues become dense, site-specific pigments that retain traces of the geology and industrial histories of their origins.
Rather than depicting landscape, the works function as material documents of extraction and ecological change, revealing how industry has altered the earth.
Presented in collaboration with Proposition, The Residues reflects a shared commitment to ecological awareness and the relationship between art, environment and community.
