There is a dreamlike quality to the way Tasmania’s contrasting landscapes exist in close proximity to each other. From the west to east, one side of a cape to the other, one side of a mountain to the other; so close and yet so different. This duality creates a feeling of being between worlds. This diptych plays with that duality. Through blending photographs taken of each side of Cape Bruny I aim to capture that haunting and powerful feeling when the impressions of different landscapes merge and come together as one aesthetic moment.
