Our History
Through
An Exclusive Art

Scroll

In the heart of Tasmania, 

the small town of Geeveston wears its history proudly. 

Marked by William Geeves’ early struggle

to settle the dense bushland, 

this humble settlement’s growth is etched 

in the timber mills’ sawdust 

and the spark of the first electrical current. 

 

The permanence of the past is on display at Cambridge House,

 a tribute to its industrious roots

and its evolution into a community hub. 

Birthed amidst struggle,

nurtured by apple and timber industries, 

and revitalized through television tourism, 

Geeveston remains resilient.

 

Today, 

Cambridge House, built by John Geeves in 1868,

 still stands as a testament to Geeveston’s past, 

present and future.

THE PERMANENT EXHIBITION IN OUR HOUSE :

We warmly invite you to join Thanavi Chotpradit, exhibition researcher, Janat Thiengsurin, exhibition designer, and Yodchat Bupasiri, artist, as they weave together the pieces of history belonging to the Geeves Family, Cambridge House, Geeveston and Tasmania through an exclusive art collection brimming with life and stories, eagerly awaiting your contributions.

Dolls, miniature books, sun prints, paintings, and other small artefacts embrace narratives of both real and imagined people and places. 

This exhibition extends beyond being a mere collection of images and objects; it is filled with thought-provoking questions about the past and present, inspiring everyone to discover answers in their own distinctive way.

OUR RESIDENT ARTIST :

Yodchat Bupasiri

Yodchat Bupasiri, also known as Yodchattinyline is an artist and writer from Thailand.  

She graduated from Silpakorn University, where she studied Painting, Sculpture, and Graphic Arts.

Bupasiri’s art and writing gracefully balances humour and profound depth. She gathers fragments and knits them together using a variety of materials and stories, giving rise to beautiful narratives. Her work possesses a childlike sensibility, yet it also harbours a maturity that enables viewer to empathize with the hardships humans inflict upon one another.
