Tarli Glover / My Place

“The body of work created for My Place continues to reflect my interest in the regional landscapes of the central and western plains of Victoria, the familiar environments that I have lived, my whole life in. My country, my land, my place has left a powerful and lasting impression on the aesthetics of my work, evident in my interpretations of space and colour and the portrayal of divisions in the landscape and alterations made by man.”

Tarli Glover is a visual artist based in Ballarat, Central Victoria and holds a BA in Fine Art painting from the University of Ballarat .

With a professional art career spanning 3 decades, Tarli has exhibited widely throughout Australia in numerous group and solo shows, including the highly successful Land, Hard Land and Paper Scape solo exhibitions.
