This exhibition showcases a series of prints created through the NorthSite Print Program, ‘SpotFire’. Facilitated by master printmaker Theo Tremblay, ‘SpotFire’ enabled eight emerging and established First Nations Artists to plan, develop and produce fine art prints on paper and fabric throughout 2023. Master printer Theo Tremblay is a pioneer of collaborative printmaking and publishing, mentoring Aboriginal and Zenadh Kes (Torres Strait) artists in a range of print mediums including lino, etching, lithography, screen-printing, mono printing, relief/wood cut and papermaking over many years. Theo runs Editions Tremblay and Canopy Editions.



‘SpotFire’ has received funding through Regional Arts Development Fund, a partnership between the Queensland Government and Cairns Regional Council to support local arts and culture in regional Queensland.
