A sombre crowd gathered at the Narrow Tracks Distilling for the opening of ‘Loved and Lost — The Freshwater Raintree — In Pictures’, an exhibition documenting the community campaign to save a 19-metre, century-old raintree in Freshwater. The tree’s controversial removal brought an end to a campaign lasting more than 10 months, after Cairns Regional Council approved an application that allowed a developer to proceed with a dual-occupancy project on the Freshwater site. The beautiful documentary photographs by Brian Cassey, Kerry Trapnell and Jon Westaway will remain on display until Sunday, 26 July. Watch the 90sec film made for this exhibition by ArtMuse in YouTube.See the gallery images for this event at Loved & Lost Gallery
