Claudia Nicholson: If The Mountain Is Burning, Let It Burn

This exhibition comprises new photographs and recent video that draws from Claudia Nicholson’s archive of over 200 images of life in Colombia and Australia.

Nicholson uses layered analogue, digital, and cameraless technologies to arrive at an image. In the developing process of analogue photography, the image, appearing slowly, can rapidly disappear through overexposure. The varied yet rhythmic nature of her photographs and videos reflects Nicholson’s interest in the workings of memory. Attempting to catch the image, Nicholson has produced a photographic series that obscures and fractures the image even further.
