Sunshine Coast/Kabi Kabi Gubbi Gubbi Country

Angourie is a stunning Surfing Reserve in Australia and one of Jack's favourite spots. This space holds cherished memories of Jack’s first real surf trip as a child.

Jack MacRae is an emerging artist from the Sunshine Coast/Kabi Kabi Gubi Gubi Country. Working with hand-cut collage and a colour field painting style; he creates abstracted and bold landscapes of the Australian coast along with various daily scenes. By playing with cut out elemental shapes in bold planes of colour, Jack's work transforms these landscapes into their purest and simplest forms, creating a unique flattened perspective of the world. Jack’s practice is an ongoing exploration of autonomy, materiality, scale and space.
