Book launch: Monica Buscarino
5 - 6pm, Thursday May 22
We are pleased to be launching Monica Buscarino's first self-published book The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, to accompany her solo exhibition in Gallery 2. Monica will be in conversation with Curator Ineke Dane, and you will have the opporunity to peruse the publication in our Gallery shop. The Heart is a Lonely Hunter was created on Country. Every image is a moment of witness—shaped by the land, its silence and the stories it holds. Captured across vast and sacred places, Tjoritja // West MacDonnell National Park, Kanku Conservation Park, Mungo National Park, Yeperenye, Umoona // Kupa Piti, Lake Hart, Mparntwe, Namatjira, Australia, and shot entirely on medium and large format vintage film cameras, accompanied by typewritten words, this book explores the concept of time—its passage, its stillness and the imprints it leaves behind.
Join us in celebrating this milestone, and grab yourself a copy of this sublime and captivating publication.
