‘Still life for 2010’, is a photographic series that investigates political and historical references from
traditional ‘still life’ painting. A farm sticker, a rubber band, cling wrap and a gauze bag are signs
evoking the production and marketing of food. The work reflects our indulgence and eroticisation
of food and the accessibility of an increasing season-less market.

Alice Parker
In No Direction Home Alice Parker reflects on a continuous and meticulous refinement of a vocabulary of colour and its relationship to space and object. This work explores how subverting the plane of a geometric form through the use of colour, surface and light informs the public space.

Big Wigs is a series of portraits utilising images from the public domain representing individuals who are presently influential in the Australian Contemporary art scene.Through the political and economic connotations in Big Wigs, the artist aims to challenge commercialization and highlight the difficulties facing art in a consumer society where changes in the art world are dependent upon the social elites, politicians and urban planners.

EVERYTHING IS A COPY OF A COPY
Video text piece
Words appropriated from the film scripts Taxi Driver, 1976 and Fight Club, 1999.
Everything is a copy of a copy, questions the split between what society thinks is morally correct versus what
is truth and what is reality. Whilst investigating how capitalism, cultural propaganda and the consumer
dominant undermine the notion of self.
How does one capture the reference points that are meaningful?
