Numinous: The Landscape Paintings of William Robinson

Numinous presents a profound exploration of one of the most significant aspects of William Robinson’s oeuvre—the landscape paintings produced between 1990 and 2008. Drawing on the magnificent natural environment of Kombumerri Country of the Yugambeh Language Region in South-East Queensland, these works occupy a delicate boundary where human perception intersects with the unknown, the infinite and the divine. Offering visitors a deeply immersive experience, these majestic paintings transcend traditional notions of time and space through William Robinson’s signature multi-dimensional lens.

Marking fifteen years since the inception of the William Robinson Gallery at QUT in 2009, Numinous celebrates the work and mastery of one of Australia’s greatest landscape artists.
