Michelle Gilbert A suitable distance 1 June - 2 July 2016



A suitable distance There are 'mes when standing in the right place, at the right 'me, a subtle shi6 occurs causing a normally ordinary view to instead feel slightly strange or elusive. These works explore a series of moments occurring in Brisbane and Japan when I have had this experience. Together, these works a form of a kind of self portrait, fragmen'ng and connec'ng my experience of landscape and embodying moments of my history, observa'on and memory. Michelle Gilbert, 2016
