Imagine for a moment living in a painting. Then envision yourself living in the landscape where this painting was conceived, footsteps away from where the artist lived. Next, picture yourself viewing this painting in a museum less than a hundred metres from your living quarters.
If your imagination has set you down in a cityscape – at MoMA in midtown Manhattan, say, the stomping ground of Jean-Michel Basquiat or Andy Warhol – delete that thought and take your imagination instead to a bucolic, quintessentially Australian bushland setting.
