Reconstruction

                              

Long time exposure taken from a ropeway car going up to the summit of Mt Inasa, was getting too dark and didn't have a tripod so just played around with the light. Stunning views of Nagasaki, a city with a dark but also bright history and future.  

Fissure

 

                          

Series of images taken from my reflections upon The Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. The space in it's repetition and shear density of blank sarcophaguses creates a sense of weight that cannot be escaped but only confronted. Would recommend any visitor to Berlin to experience this memorial and take some time to reflect on those lost to needless hatred.      

State Transference series

The theory of State Transference goes that we pass our mood onto those around us. Basically smile and the 

whole world smiles with you [link]. I think imagery can have the same effect, just as music can. 

After seeing one of the works of Madz Rehorek [link] of the sea at night time and it just transferring a calmness over me, I understood it. The series also takes a liberal dose of Mark Rothko [link], Jackson Pollock [link] and Andreas Gursky's Bangkok series [link]. 

specular reflections off Bass Strait taken off a cliff at Point Road Knight, on new years eve. All taken in camera using long time exposure and camera movements no Photoshop required. Light painting 101. 

The Man and Woman of Steel series

Man, getting all dark, emo and Henson [link] of late but once again a subjet in a light, that you don't often view it. Also getting all meta with my art and that of  Nadim Karam [link] would designed The Travellers sculpture at sandbridge bridge [link] in the CBD of Melbourne. Maybe one day art will be self reproducing art making other art as C3PO [link] would say how perverse.

Note: No hardened steel was mental or physically harmed during the making of this work.
