Numinous: The Landscape Paintings of William Robinson
1 October 2024 – 31 August 2025
Numinous presents a profound exploration of one of the most significant aspects of William Robinson’s oeuvre—the landscape paintings produced between 1990 and 2008. Drawing on the magnificent natural environment of Kombumerri Country of the Yugambeh Language Region in South-East Queensland, these works occupy a delicate boundary where human perception intersects with the unknown, the infinite and the divine.

The artist
“Once you’re a painter it’s not a hobby, it becomes part of your very being. Every single thing you do to do with your living relates to your painting. You’re a sort of prisoner to your art.” – William Robinson AO
