Transcendence: photographs by David Stephenson
Monash Gallery of Art
Friday 16 September 2011 to Sunday 16 October 2011
David Stephenson has photographed a range of subjects in countries around the world, including landscapes, skyscapes, cityscapes and cathedral ceilings.
While the immediate subject of his works has varied, the underlying themes and ideas within his photographs have remained consistent. Stephenson uses photography to explore abstract, intangible themes including time, mortality and spirituality.
This exhibition shows works from a range of series by Stephenson, focussing on his colour works from 1993 to the present. Included are selections from Star drawings 1995–2006, Domes 1993–2005, Dusk to dawn 2009, Vaults 2003–09 and Light cities 2008–11.
