Through drawing and lithography, artist Dr Nicola Hooper uses fairy-tale iconography, rhymes and associated anthropomorphism to both discuss and educate about zoonotic viruses (animal diseases that cross-over to humans). The exhibition explores how we perceive certain animal hosts in the context of fear and their association to disease.

ZOONOSES is a touring exhibition of works by Dr Nicola Hooper presented by Logan Art Gallery, Logan City Council, in partnership with Museums & Galleries Queensland. This project has been assisted by the Australian Government’s Visions of Australia program and is supported by the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland. Proudly sponsored by Haymes Paint.
