The Wetlands by Paper Hands

Enjoy the display 'The Wetlands', by local artist Paper Hands, at Boondall Wetlands Environment Centre as part of the Community Art Wall. Paper Hands (Holly Nielson) is a Brisbane-based illustrator.

My artwork is often exploring the power of regeneration, through the connection of nature and the individual."

This ongoing display can be viewed from May to September: Tuesday to Friday, 9am-4pmSaturday and Sunday, 9am-12pm.About the Community Art Wall: Located in the Boondall Wetlands Environment Centre, the Community Art Wall is a small, ongoing display which aims to celebrate and promote environmental awareness through art by featuring work from local artists and community groups that reflect environmental themes such as sustainability, biodiversity and connection to nature.
