STORY
Joanne Currie grew up on the banks of the Maranoa River in the 1960s. She has described it as a no-man's land, a grass roots lifestyle, kero lamps and heaters, government issue blankets - families and hardships.

Joanne's paintings speak of the river as a living entity but also appear to transmit other elements - perhaps the shimmer of wind on the water, the aura of light and air? Her highly charged paintings have a individual style that, whilst instantly recognisable as Indigenous, speaks of her journey as an artist moving within cultures - artwork that holds to tradition yet sits confidently in the here and now. The loaded lines in all her work mark Joanne's intelligence as a dynamic Queensland artist, and sustain her passion and determination as a survivor.
