Karenne Rees
Salt Trace
Saturday April 27, 2013 - 5pm 'till 8ish
Karenne Rees is going to present the beginnings of new body of work she began while camping at Lake Becking in the Mallee region over the Easter break. This new work has been made via direct contact between sheets of graphic art film and the surface of the salt lake. The evocative colours produced by the exposure of the film is reminiscent of aerial photographs. The visible trace of the salt forms a texture and patina on the surface of the film.
Karenne is a photo media artist who has been exhibiting for ten years. Her practice is primarily focused on recording and developing the latent image on film; a medium she finds evocative and necessary for her practice. Contemporizing history, connectedness to place and the recording of life experiences have influenced her earlier work.
