About the Theme:

Proserpine is shaped by its environment and its people. This theme encourages artists to capture:

• Land: The sugar cane fields, farming heritage, and distinctive drylands of the area.

• Water: The importance of the Peter Faust Dam and wetlands for the town’s ecology and recreation.

• Life: The birdlife, the Proserpine Rock Wallaby, crocodiles, and other species that make up the local wildlife.

• Us: The people of Proserpine—farmers, workers, families, and individuals who contribute to the community’s character and identity.
