Petrina HicksBeautiful Creatures

Petrina Hicks’ Beautiful Creatures appeals to our senses. Immediately alluring the large-scale, hyper-real photographs, are all rendered so clearly and with such control that they are reminiscent of advertisements, promoting a slick new television series perhaps, or teen clothing range.

Mark Kimber & Polixeni PapapetrouAll that Glisters & Between Worlds

Mark Kimber’s new work is fanciful and serious in equal measure. The photographs in All That Glisters present hermetically sealed mini dioramas that speak of our need to place value upon, control, and create memorabilia within our lives. The worlds of Polixeni Papapetrou are increasingly fantastical in this new exhibition Between Worlds. These images are striking, disturbing and memorable.

Trent ParkePlease step quietly everyone can hear you

This year Magnum photographer Trent Parke, one of Australia’s best-known and most original photographers, was commissioned by Sydney Opera House, as an artist in residence, to shoot behind the scenes. With his characteristic originality and imagination Parke takes us with him backstage.

The Summer of UsNarelle Autio

For her new body of work, The Summer of Us, Autio has returned to the ocean, but this time to the shore, to the natural and man-made remnants of long summer days; to a lone pink thong, the skeletons of sun hats and sand-crusted fish. Her collection of images introduces us to a lovely continuum existing between manufactured and natural, between ocean and land.

Fleet LightMegan Jenkinson

Traditional photography, like hard science, could not fulfill the task of capturing what the eye, not the camera, observes of the Aurora Australis. Instead Jenkinson uses the lenticular image process, involving the digital reconstitution of several images into a single print. As a ridged lens covering the print simultaneously reveals and conceals its elements, a shifting and illusory effect arise

Tea Leaf ReadingDorota Mytych

Using materials such as tea and sugar Dorota Mytych recreates photographs sculpturally in order to video them. Her images appear on screen slowly, particle by particle and stay quietly with the viewer. Once the image has coalesced, the process is reversed and the image breaks piece-by-piece leaving nothing but an empty white screen.

in response to knowing when something is finishedMartin Smith

Martin Smith’s 'In response to knowing when something is finished' series focuses on those small moments that glance into a life. The loss or absence inherent in photographic images, which are suggestive of another time and place, is echoed in the physical loss of the words cut into the surface of the works.

Three-Hole Mountain InnPaul Adair

Three-Hole Mountain Inn follows a similar process to Decoy (Stills 2007), where Adair physically constructs all of his sets and props before photographing them. The method of re-creating and re-presenting objects has become integral to developing his practice and continues his interest in the relationship between sculpture and photography.

EdgelandMark Kimber

In Edgeland, Mark Kimber continues his use of vivid primary coloured images to portray the urban landscape in an unfamiliar way. Objects in the environment are isolated and made strange, walls and house facades appear surreal and two dimensional, skies are brilliant blue, vegetation a lurid green. The world that is ordinarily familiar to us becomes fresh and novel.

naturalism08Chris Fortescue

Scans of scrap newspaper and packaging are transformed into delicate symmetrical shapes. Appearing like isolated microscopic studies, these are science fictions in their own right.

Games of ConsequencePolixeni Papapetrou

In Games of Consequence, Papapetrou explores the symbolic space of childhood today. Her images delve into the hollows of childhood spaces (physical, psychological and emotional), their games and practises. By recreating playful and sometimes emotional exchanges through her child models, she re-enacts the freedom of movement and self-determination that children once experienced.

HabitatsBeverley Veasey

Beverley Veasey’s 2006 series Natural History depicted animals and birds in artificial environments. In this new body of work, Habitats, her interest in the artificial continues however this time the inhabitants, the animals, are nowhere to be found.

STRETTOChristine Cornish

Stretto, from the Latin to draw close, is Christine Cornish’s latest body of work. In keeping with earlier works, Cornish has created simple yet profound compositions that are also philosophical in intent.

The Great and the GoodRobyn Stacey

Robyn Stacey’s most recent work re-creates the lost garden of Elizabeth Bay House once world famous not only for the Australian natives but for the exotics imported from China, India, and the Cape of Good Hope and South America. Her artwork gives us access to important historical collections and through that to ideas about history and how our present is shaped by the past.
