Don’t Look Down From ancient times to the present, the Alps have had mythological, spiritual and romantic significance. Recognisable peaks, like the Matterhorn, have become trademarks for chocolate companies and the like; their rugged profiles filtering into our everyday lives, even in places far away. Over the past century, advances in engineering have made access to viewing platforms easy in the Alps, and now thousands of tourists line up to photograph these scenic vistas every day. For his series Don’t Look Down, Rimmer sought to alter these views, and thereby question the experience of what we already know in our collective memories. By deliberately inverting the image into an unnatural colour palette, the landscapes become foreign and unsettling. Brad Rimmer is an Australian photographer who works on long-term projects of portraiture, landscape and social documentation. Based in Fremantle, he seeks to uncover the human within often alienating everyday environs. He is the author of three photobooks with T&G Publishing: Silence (2010), Don’t Look Down (May 2019), and Nature Boy (September 2019). In 2009, Rimmer received a Mid-Career Fellowship from the Western Australian Department of Culture and the Arts to publish Silence. Subsequently, the Art Gallery of Western Australia acquired the entire Silence exhibition of 30 works…

Orion

description: Orion, Fábio Miguel Roque latest book is a deep personal journey through the artist past months and all that comes out with it. Like building a new constellation, Orion is connected with the artist revious book — Everything Lay Still. It's seen as a continuation of the same body of work traveling from the past to the present embracing the future. In this book, he works towards a clear duality between himself as part of na inner territory and the outside world dealing with death, loss, life and love. The stars have been since the early ages a guidance point and in this series, Roque’s uses this notion as a shield to guide himself. Always remembering to look up to approach life. On the other hand, the artist worked around the Greek myth of Orion. This giant hunter became blind and by the power of Helios — the God of the Sun, got his vision back. Orion, claimed that he would kill every animal in the world, but Gaea — the goddess of the Earth — angered by Orion's claims, sent a scorpion to kill him. Upon Orion's demise, Zeus turned him into a constellation with his two dogs (Canis Minor and Canis Major), along with his killer scorpion. Regarding, Orion’s myth and making an analogy between this creature and the Photographer — a hunter for images and blinded/healed by the light that comes within.

Restricted Residence

description: “There is something about the invisibility of radiation, and its potential to kill silently. We have good reason to fear what we cannot see, or taste, or hear, or touch. If our senses offer no guide to the scale of the risk, we must assume the best or fear the worst.” – Fred Pearce, science and environmental writer. Restricted Residence examines the relocation of Japanese citizens to Namie and Iitate, two towns exposed to extreme radioactivity following the catastrophic leak at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant after the 2011 earthquake and tsunami. In 2017, despite inconclusive scientific consensus of the long-term effects of radiation in the area, the government began to reduce the exclusion zones and heavily financially incentivise residents to return to what were formerly bustling towns. Now, the area is eerily empty, with just a few hundred people brave enough to return. With the reactor still unrepaired and uninhabitable radiation hotspots scattered across the landscape, some believe these areas will not be safe for 50 years or longer. Restricted Residence employs thermal technology often used in medicine and surveying, to render the everyday landscapes surreal and inverted, it attempts to visualise the potential hidden stresses on those living in an altered environment, and examine the condition known as Radiophobia: the fear ionizing radiation and its long term psychological effects. The work blurs the lines of genre and questions what a document is and can be.
