Peter Hickson
Our next presenter for the year is our very own and inimitable Peter Hickson. Peter has been a member of the BCG for over 8 years and in that time has developed a tremendous body of work that has been recognised both nationally and internationally. He is commonly on the finalist list for the prestigious Mono Awards and has been working towards his APS Honours for the last little while.
Peter will talk to us about his current personal project “Australian Gothic” and the journey to arrive at the project. His dry sense of humour runs strong through this series. For those of you who may not be familiar with the work, the project is a series of photographs inspired by his rural upbringing, his larrikin sense of Australian humour and is mildly inspired by Grant Wood’s “American Gothic” painting. If asked I would describe this work is Conceptual Australiana with a satirical bite. At the heart of it this series is about work, survival and power in rural Australia, filtered through irony and allegory. Not to be missed.
