Disruption demonstrates an interest in the relationship we have with photographs, and in particular, between images and the material onto which they are printed.
Trees in Space: The Reorder of Things examines trees as manipulated energy structures in space. Trees create their own kind of order by connecting the geological with the cosmological, extending complex structures between soil strata and the distant sun — structures which house entire ecosystems and affect the systems around them.
It’s a question of paying more attention to the space that exists around us. In doing so, we develop a sense of confidence, confidence that space exists in front of our eyes and that it is not demanding anything. It’s a free world.
Force has its own will. It pushes with great pressure, like the steaming weight of rollers outside my house.
Expedition considers the significance of our ongoing relationship with the land and the identity of our nation. The exhibition is an investigation into the formation of our cultural psyche resulting from the ‘Aussie adventurer’ determination to discover and lay claim to sites, locations and territories.
In the four works that comprise this exhibition Trish Morrissey employs self-portraiture, performance and wit as tools to investigate the boundaries of photographic meaning through still and moving images.
