Bruce Daniel is a visual artist living in the Blue Mountains, NSW.
“We all belong to the landscape. We are all connected to it and influenced by it. In my work I am attempting to explore and express that connection – to delve deep below the surface of things, to get in touch with the universal.”

Artist’s statement
The Coastal Exposure series explores the jagged coastal edge of our continent where the crust is exposed by the sea. My aim, as always, was to connect with the spiritual power of landscape. Locations are primarily on the coast of NSW, which contains some of the oldest known geological formations on earth. Following on from my 2020 solo show Yunta Landscapes, which featured the vast landscapes and ancient rock formations of the South Australian outback, the coastal landscapes in this series are vastly different from but intrinsically connected to the outback – both physically and spiritually.
YUNTA LANDSCAPES
Solo exhibition held at ARO Gallery, Darlinghurst NSW, Jan 29 – Feb 2 2020
Artist’s statement
I am of European stock but I am native-born Australian. The outback is in my bones despite having lived all my life in a metropolis on the coast. We all belong to the landscape; we are all connected to it and influenced by it. I felt a strong sense of connection while immersed in the ancient landscape around Yunta, South Australia, on Ngadjuri land. My paintings are my attempt to express that connection in images.
