<span style="line-height: normal;">“</span>Dreams are true while they last. And do we not live in dreams?” Alfred Lord Tennyson</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
In this exhibition, four photographers set out to answer this question posed by Alfred Lord</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
Tennyson some 150 years ago. Their artistic exploration maps the contours of their</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
dreams and imaginations—much like cartographers outlining the shorelines and mountains</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
of a new continent. For what are dreams, but a map to move us forward on a quest</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
for understanding?</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
And on this journey to awareness, one artist beckons with gesture and symbol to a quiet</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
blue world, on a search for meaning and purpose in an unknown future. While another’s</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
attraction to the strange and bizarre, melded with a dose of reality, creates an incongruence</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
that implores us to look again and again. A third artist uses colour as an emotional</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
springboard, moving us through visual dreamscapes that merge magic realism with surrealism,</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
considering complex relationships along the way. And a fourth artist looks through a</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
lens of hope and possibility, longing to see the unseeable and to know the unknowable. A</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
quartet of dreamers and explorers they are, taking us along for the ride.</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
Julia Margaret Cameron, in her timeless and moving work, sought to ennoble photography</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
by combining the real and the Ideal. It is the hope of these four photographers to honour</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
her legacy by creating art that encourages viewers to embark on their own expeditions,</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
map their own dreams, and perhaps alter their directions as a result.</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
This exhibition features thirty one works by four international photographers: Fran Forman,</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
Jonah Calinawan, Paul Biddle and Tami Bone. The exhibition is produced and curated by</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">
Dr Rachel Tait, Dimbola Museum and Galleries, in association with <span style="line-height: normal;">Maxine Watts, </span>Reclaim</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; line-height: normal;">

I've heard it said <span style="font-size: large;">I always carry a camera</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">W ell I do too</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Ok I do when I remember</span><br />
<h3>
<br />there really is no excuse not to</h3>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">and then I remember a few words by Susan Sontag</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">something about photographers </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">not really experiencing the scene before them</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">only recording it to experience it after the event</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I read this when I was a student</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">and it certainly made me ponder</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">but it never stopped me taking a snap or two</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Now here is one of my snaps</span><br />

I <span style="font-size: large;">have</span> to say<br />
<div>
<br />
I do <span style="font-size: large;"> love a bit of back-lighting</span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
and combine that with a gauze curtain</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
and the magic begins to happen</div>

<div>
Diffused <span style="font-size: large;">Light</span><br />

Long shadows </div>
<div>

Add some <span style="font-size: large;">Stick figures </span> A bit like Lowry</div>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #999999;">They have never</span> ever</span> L <span style="font-size: large;">oo</span>ked quite right</h3>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<br />
<span style="color: #666666;">I received an email from Debra Curran who is a photography student currently studying The History of Photography. One of the course requirements is to create a showcase about the work of a contemporary photographer, and fortunately for me she chose to use my work. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666;">She sent me several questions about my images and I answered them by email.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666;">There have been some great presentations over the years but Debra’s showcase stands head and shoulders over the rest. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666;">You can even make your own comments on the images.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666;">Thanks for the great presentation, Debra. It made me feel like a proper photographer. </span><br />
