About the Painting - ‘Borderlines’
Borderline expresses both the role of ceremony inside a tradition, as well as the role of shared stories for outsiders.
About the Artist - Ian Waldron
Ian Waldron was born in 1950 at Atherton in rural Far North Queensland. Waldron’s traditional country and language group is Kurtjar. Kurtjar country is in the Gulf of Carpentaria, spanning the coast from the mouth of the Staaten River south to Karumba, running over 200 kilometers inland. Ian spent most of his childhood in North Queensland, completing his secondary education in Sydney after a family relocation, returning to Queensland in his mid-teens.
In 1992, Waldron took a break from his commercial art career to commence a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the Northern Territory University (renamed the Charles Darwin University in 2003). In 1995, his final year of study, Waldron was the winner of the Open Painting category in the 12th National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Award. During the next six years his work was shown in a number of notable exhibitions including:
Dobell Drawing Prize (1995), Sydney;
Alice Prize (1996), Alice Springs;
“12th National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Award Travelling Exhibition” (1996), Darwin, Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney and Adelaide;
“Sydney Olympic SOCOG Exhibition” (2000), Sydney; and
“Transitions – 17 Years of the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Award” (2001), Melbourne, Adelaide and Canberra and the
Archibald Prize (2007).
