Discover how the idea begins!
From a painter’s brush to a hand-knotted masterpiece, witness how the Lyrebird Deity comes to life. It all starts with Bruce carefully painting this intricate design, capturing the essence of Australia’s native flora and fauna with every stroke.
Swipe to see how that vision is then reimagined as a hand-knotted rug, expertly crafted to preserve the depth, texture, and movement of the original painting.
Both the painting and rug were exhibited in May 2023 at Woollahra Gallery at Redleaf as part of Slorach’s Native Deities exhibition. A show that beautifully reflected his deep connection to the Australian landscape.
Bruce's work has been exhibited in renowned institutions, including the Victoria & Albert Museum (London), the National Gallery of Victoria, the Australian National Gallery, and the Powerhouse Museum (Sydney). His pieces are held in permanent collections and continue to be featured in leading Australian and international publications.
