brief_description
Rosemary Laing’s complete weather series (2006–2007), including a group of the artist’s working drawings, has been gathered together for the first time in Australia. Additionally, the weather series has been brought into conversation with a number of related works, including Laing’s Natural Disasters series (1988), and works from swanfires (2002/2004), remembering Babylon, a collaboration with Stephen Birch (2003), one dozen unnatural disasters in the Australian landscape (2003), to walk on a sea of salt (2004) and a dozen useless actions for grieving blondes (2009). Not a survey, the exhibition looks to place the weather series with particular works so as to discover some of the thematic concerns that have underpinned Laing’s work over a period of two decades. Many of the exhibited works speak literally or metaphorically about natural and unnatural disasters, while being charged with suggestions of cultural turbulence. Rosemary Laing is a Brisbane-born artist who lives and works in Sydney. Her photographic work has been critically acclaimed internationally.
