Earthly reflections of heavenly things brings together three senior Australian artists from different cultural, religious and artistic traditions whose art practices reflect a consistent engagement with mystical and non-secular matters. Featured artists are Asher Bilu, Leonard Brown and Emily Kame Kngwarreye.

Each of the artists featured in Earthly reflections of heavenly things is motivated by distinctly different aims, and their artworks refer to various histories of visual communication. Yet all three share a non-representational visual language that is immersive, materially rich and markedly experiential. Bilu, Brown and Kngwarreye are not dogmatic or emphatic in their approach to art making; their works are open propositions that communicate through the language of abstraction.
