OrnamentAnne MacDonald Thursday 18 September - Sunday 26 October 2008Ornament extends Anne MacDonald’s investigation into the metaphorical relationship between photography and death. The connection with death, through the camera’s arbitrary cut into the continuum of time to form an image, is broadened in these recent works by the artist’s subject matter – porcelain flowers and tin leaves placed on graves from the Victorian era. The photographic object, like the porcelain flower, may arrest time but in truth merely delays the inevitable. View the Exhibition Catalogue Read the Artlink Review
