Miegunyah House Museum "Perspectives and Perceptions" display.

This is a virtual tour of the display highlighting artworks from the collection of the QWHA. This display was held in early 2021 at the Miegunyah House Museum, Brisbane. The concept behind this project was to exhibit work from our important collection and to invite local contemporary artists to contribute a response to those works. Styles include Miniatures; Photographic Opalotypes; Portraits; Silhouettes; Landscapes; Autograph books and Queensland Women. Throughout the tour you will find the contemporary work hanging or placed near the 19th century equivalent categories. Contemporary works are included from the Fireworks Gallery (https://www.fireworksgallery.com.au/) and from celebrated Queensland sculptor, Rhyl Hinwood.
