In the Quiet of the Land - Regional Arts Triennial 3

WA Regional Arts Triennial 3: Radical Futures

The third Regional Arts Triennial (RAT3) brings together artists across Western Australia under the theme Radical Futures - a call to imagine bold new possibilities for art, culture and community.

Busselton’s contribution, In the Quiet of the Land, will be presented at the Old Courthouse Complex in February 2026, curated by Japneet Keith (Guest Curator) and Sharon Williams (Busselton Cultural Precinct).

Featuring 11 celebrated regional artists, the exhibition spans a rich diversity of mediums, including painting, photography, ceramics, weaving, printmaking, textiles, natural dye, mixed media and installation.

Exhibiting Artists:

Gerald Ashcroft · Elaine Clocherty, Mitchella Hutchins & Nan Viv Brockman Webb · Merle Davis · Christian Fletcher ·
Francesco Geronazzo · Gary Hambleton · Melanie Jarman · Kay Manolas · Kim Perrier · Barbara Weeks

Each artist offers a distinct response to the South West landscape - exploring fragility, resilience, memory, material alchemy, sustainability and transformation.

Select works from RAT3 will also be shown in Perth and tour statewide with ART ON THE MOVE.

In the Quiet of the Land is proudly delivered by the City of Busselton’s Old Courthouse Complex as part of the WA Regional Arts Triennial 3: Radical Futures, supported by the WA Government, Southern Forest Arts, ART ON THE MOVE, John Curtin Gallery, Regional Arts WA, GalleriesWest and Kimberley Arts Network.
