About Me

Artist Statement

Unique State Prints

Artist Statement

  

The pictures I make are inspired by my local region's dry and wet tropical landscapes, extending west of Townsville to Charters Towers, Magnetic Island, and as far north as Weipa, focusing on lichens, avians, and tropical plants experienced through seasonal changes.

Glide is the second collaborative project between the three Townsville-based artists. Robert Crispe, Michelle Hall and Jo Lankester.

Jo Lankester Artist Talk Newcastle Printmakers Festival 2021

 I was recently invited to give a 20-minute artist talk for the Newcastle Printmakers Festival in 2021. Unfortunately due to Covid-19, I chose not to travel interstate but instead create a video in my studio discussing the PCA Print Commission edition I created in 2018. 

Legacy: Reflections on Mabo

Check out this great video that accompanies the touring exhibition with the same title. This is an exhibition which I'm very proud to be a part of.  Toward the end of the video, I discuss my work 'Bloodlines' which is featured in this exhibition.
