Wild Island – fine art and gifts from natural Tasmania.
Wild Island celebrates the nature of Tasmania through art, fine design, beautiful gifts, cultural events and workshops. Wild Island seeks to awaken and enliven our intrinsic connection with nature – to engage and inspire.
At Wild Island, in the heart of Hobart’s Salamanca Place, you’ll find:
The Wild Island gallery, that hosts regular exhibitions of two-dimensional and mixed media artworks, Tasmanian sustainable wood design, textiles, ceramics, jewellery, photography and more. The gallery features an extensive collection of the iconic work of Peter Dombrovskis, pre-eminent in Tasmanian wilderness photography.
The Wild Island shop, that offers a diverse selection of high quality, ethically produced, nature-based gifts from Tasmania, including clothing, lifestyle items, books, toys, educational materials, art-cards and prints.
Wild Island workshops, seminars and film nights, covering such topics as print and jewellery making, photography, art, environment and wildlife care.
The mission of Wild Island is to celebrate natural Tasmania and its magnificent wild places through art, workshops and events. Wild Island has a vision of Tasmania as, in the words of the famous photographer Olegas Truchanas, “a shining beacon in a dull, uniform and largely artificial world.”
Wild Island is part of the COLLECT Art Purchase Scheme that offers Australian residents interest-free loans to purchase artworks by contemporary Tasmanian artists.
We acknowledge the Tasmanian Aboriginal people and their enduring custodianship of lutruwita / Tasmania. We honour 40,000 years of uninterrupted care, protection and belonging to these islands, before the invasion and colonisation of European settlement. As a destination that welcomes visitors to these lands, we acknowledge our responsibility to represent to our visitors, Tasmania’s deep and complex history, fully, respectfully and truthfully.
We acknowledge the Aboriginal people who continue to care for this country today. We pay our respects to their elders, past and present. We honour their stories, songs, art, and culture, and their aspirations for the future of their people and these lands. We respectfully ask that tourism be a part of that future.
