Rebecca Dagnall: There is unrest in the forest, there is trouble with the trees
Monash Gallery of Art
Wednesday 02 February 2011 to Sunday 27 March 2011
Opening Saturday 12 February 2011 3pm
Dagnall's exhibition is an exploration of heavy metal culture as a particular genre of suburban iconography. With the intention to create a ‘suburban aesthetic' this work draws together elements of traditional landscape, fantasy poster art and the dark imagery of heavy metal culture. The portrait-like skulls that emerge from the landscape, echo the imagery that creates the heavy metal aesthetic.
Rebecca Dagnall’s photographs explore peoples’ relationship with their immediate surroundings.
