Horsham Regional Art Gallery would like to invite you to the opening of WIMMERA by Greg Mallyon, on Thursday 7th December at 5:30pm.

WIMMERA is an exploration of the evolving landscape of our diverse geographical region from an abstract aerial perspective.

His exhibition of over 50 small and large scale works incorporate computer technology with traditional painting and printmaking to create a unique perspective of the Wimmera.

We look forward to seeing you on the night to celebrate this special body of work making its premiere in our gallery.
