In 'Bird Song', a new series of original lithographs made in collaboration with APW printers, Richard Lewer highlights some of Australia's threatened species - the featured birds range from vulnerable to the critically endangered. Lewer aims to create a space for these birds to be appreciated, an archive for their existence and beauty. Given that birds are so integral to the artist's practice, the vulnerability of the subject matter is not only ecologically devastating but also personally challenging.
The Orange-Bellied Parrot (Neophema chrysogaster) is a critically endangered species of parrot native to southern Australia. Its conservation status is dire, with estimates suggesting only a few dozen individuals remain in the wild. It is also one of only three kinds of migratory parrots in the world. They breed in Tasmania and then fly to mainland Australia. The species faces habitat loss and fragmentation from urban and agricultural development as the main ongoing threats to its survival. With such a tiny population, the Orange-Bellied parrot is vulnerable to the effects of low genetic variability. Conservation efforts have been ongoing for several decades, including the release of captivity-bred birds to boost their numbers.
'Bird Song' premieres a new suite of fifteen original prints by Richard Lewer produced in collaboration with APW printers at Australian Print Workshop, Melbourne, 2024.
Signed, edition of 20. Lithograph print, 2024. Unframed.
