Joshua Andree: Dawntreading

In his first solo exhibition with FLG, Tasmanian painter Joshua Andree presents a new body of landscape works inspired by his observations of the shifting light and seasonal rhythms of his local environment.

Focusing on the transitional moments when day becomes night and night becomes day, Andree distils the landscape into crystalline abstractions that speak to the fleeting nature of existence. Drawing from the romantic traditions of the sublime, these works are less about place than about moments, spaces where wonder and fragility coexist, where light dissolves form, and where hope emerges with each new dawn.

Known for his evocative and contemplative approach, Andree’s paintings explore light, time and the fragile, fleeting transitions between night and day. Rooted in Tasmania’s gothic traditions and layered histories, his works reveal the poetics of landscape as both an external and psychological terrain.
