Bloomfield’s 30 paintings were made by Linda Greedy during a 12 month artist in residency facilitated by The Bloomfield Group. This body of work celebrates the working life of the Hunter coal mine, its history, the people and a wild goat called Rachel.
“The people involved in the Hunter coal industry span generations and this exhibition pays homage to that legacy,” MRAG’s Cultural Director Brigette Uren said.
“The humour artist Linda Greedy brings to these paintings is uniquely Australian and will be loved by the many visitors to MRAG this summer.”
