From Another Shore is a rare and evocative collaboration between Australian prose writer Rudi Krausmann and celebrated Australian artist Brett Whiteley. The work presents Krausmann's lyrical prose meditations alongside Whiteley's striking black-and-white drawings, creating a unified artistic vision that bridges the literary and visual arts. Krausmann, an Austrian-born Australian writer and editor, brings a distinctly migrant sensibility to the text, chronicling themes of displacement, longing, and the search for belonging across cultural and geographical divides. Whiteley's gestural, expressive drawings — rendered in bold ink strokes reminiscent of his signature style — amplify the emotional undertow of the prose with visceral immediacy. Together, the two artists produce an intimate and contemplative work that stands as a testament to the creative dialogue possible between word and image in Australian literary culture.
