Unusual Natural Scenes from Western Port Bay
Inspired by the landscapes and wildlife of Western Port Bay, this exhibition brings together photographic works that explore the tranquillity and unexpected forms found within the natural environment. Through her unique perspective, Celia Furt reveals familiar places in surprising and often abstract ways.
Working primarily at dawn, Celia Furt captures fleeting moments as nature awakens. Using aerial and terrestrial photography, she reveals familiar landscapes in abstract and dreamy ways. From above, beaches, seabeds and creeks take on unexpected forms, sometimes resembling pastries and other foods.
Her titles are an integral part of each work, offering descriptions or touches of humour that shape how viewers interpret the images. Printed on aluminium, these works invite viewers to pause and look more closely, discovering new perspectives on the familiar landscapes of Western Port Bay.
