I hope the viewer can for a moment escape reality and enter a world that stimulates their imagination. The Australian landscape signifies the place where I grew up. It is a place I identify with my childhood. Using natural available light,and desaturated hues to create an ethereal,dream like mood. As you move through the images,there is a sense of the real and the fictional,a moment,involuntary imagery .

Story

This series of images reflect fragments of my memory.
These memories present themselves like a dream,broken,yet consistent,an involuntary experience, where im unable to fully recognise the difference between memory and reality.
Awareness without conscience.
Adream or or just imagination,
its an attempt tp retrieve a memory from my childhood.

Like invountary images that come and go in our minds.

They are precious fragments of an experience of a memory rather than the recollection of it.

Reminding us of how something in the present can be connected to the past.
