Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carbon Obscura is a wordplay on camera obscura, which was an early form of camera used to assist artists to draw a scene during the Renaissance. The work takes photography (drawing with light) to new dimensions, these are cameras like no other, and light becomes animated in waves of fog. The artist takes his intrigue with light and projections to new places and opens portals for the audience allowing them to enter the space of the camera. Initially conceived in 2007 for an installation in the greenhouse at Montsalvat as part of Structure Place and Space curated by Tony Tembath the work enchanted the audience and various versions followed. In this series of works, Godman created darkened spaces and materialized animated images of trees in the dark interior by piercing thousands of tiny pinholes into the opaque membrane that keeps the light out. But the pinholes allow light to leak in. Each pierced opening acted as a pinhole camera and not only allowed light to penetrate the space but also projections from the world outside. These were interactive installations where the audience triggered a fog generator as they entered a darkened space and fog filled the space with rays of light streaming through the waves of mist. The artist constructed various versions of the Carbon Obscuras in France, Morwell, Canberra, and Federation Square in Melbourne. Carbon Obscura was a key aspect to part of the Sustainability Festival at Kernot Hall, Morwell, Victoria in 2008, a major part of VIVID the National Photography Festival 2008 in Canberra, and a centrepiece of ReGenerating Community Arts, Community and Governance National Conference 2009 in Melbourne. The concept behind the work lies in the process of trees using light and photosynthesis to capture carbon. With the audience triggering the fog generator, it suggests we are responsible for our emissions.

In 1996 he began by growing simple images into the leaves of Bromeliad plants as a form of bio-imprinting, which in turn led to sophisticated interactive installations of tillandsia plants ( airplants ) in galleries and other spaces in New Zealand, Australia, and the USA. Rather than stay with passive mediums like photography, drawing and sculpture that he had worked with for decades, his concern for the environment moved him to work with a living medium that was environmentally active, and captured CO2. Working with plants as a living art medium informed him to conceive the planet as a huge photosensitive emulsion. The largest photosensitive emulsion we know of is the planet earth. As vegetation grows, dies back, changes colour with the seasons, the "photographic image" that is our planet alters. Increasingly human intervention plays a larger role in transforming the image of the globe we inhabit. Lloyd Godman ecological artist - 2006 Working with plants traces the development of this work, it is rich in ideas and well documented with images and offers an insight into how he evolved into a leader at integrating plants into architecture in a sustainable manner working with Tillandsias ( air plants ). Lloyd Godman's twin careers of serious and successful organic gardener and practicing artist of great creative energy converge in new and constantly surprising ways to make art about the ecological concerns that underly his gardening. Over almost three decades his art has widened out from relatively traditional landscape photography to include elements of performance, audience participation art and multimedia installation to explore the tensions between electronic consumer society and the ecosystem.

Download or read book The Making of Indigenous Australian Contemporary Art written by Marie Geissler and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-06 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication brings together existing research as well as new data to show how Arnhem Land bark painting was critical in the making of Indigenous Australian contemporary art and the self-determination agendas of Indigenous Australians. It identifies how, when and what the shifts in the reception of the art were, especially as they occurred within institutional exhibition displays. Despite key studies already being published on the reception of Aboriginal art in this area, the overall process is not well known or always considered, while the focus has tended to be placed on Western Desert acrylic paintings. This text, however represents a refocus, and addresses this more fully by integrating Arnhem Land bark painting into the contemporary history of Aboriginal art. The trajectory moves from its understanding as a form of ethnographic art, to seeing it as conceptual art and appreciating it for its cultural agency and contemporaneity.
