Paintings from Coopers Shoot
Catalogue foreword
For contemporary artist Alan Daniel Jones, Coopers Shoot has become a significant site of respite. The scenic location is known for its hilltop farmland and panoramic views to Cape Byron. Paintings from Coopers Shoot document the picturesque landscape that Jones’ young family has grown increasingly familiar with since first visiting the area in 2018. The artist has chosen to work on a smaller scale for this exhibition to draw the viewer in close and create a sense of intimacy and stillness evocative of the location itself.
