Horizons Stave

10th August - 31st August, 2023

George Akl

As people and nature engage in a dance to settle on country, the choreography is indelibly mapped onto the landscape. Horizon Stave was an impromptu, FIFO, tongue-in-cheek visual observation on the landscape of Iluka.

The act of seeing is perverted to unravel the complex culture of incongruent architecture that is continually struggling against the ferocity of the natural world. The irony that these places became destinations for vacations, providing freedom from duty, is untangled by the senseless perception of images demanding to be interrogated, to be enjoyed.
