Last year I was contacted by a curator from the Museum of the Image (MOTI) in the Netherlands, asking if they could include the image below in their exhibition, Der Wanderer (part of the BredaPhoto festival) exploring contemporary images from art and popular culture which reference Caspar David Friedrich's 'Wanderer above the sea of fog' (1818). This is a documentation image from my solo exhibition, Shortfall, at ANCA Gallery in 2013. The work was only completed when someone was standing in front of the image, so in a way, the photographs I have are more 'the artwork' than the doubled rolled up canvas stashed in my spare room! I recently received the installation images from Der Wanderer below, as well as the wonderful news that the exhibition will be shown this year at the National Museum of Contemporary Art (MNAC) in Romania. I'm so grateful to be included in these exhibitions, and I think it's pretty great that a work featuring Canberra and the Brindabella Mountains is being shown on the other side of the world!
