Simryn Gill: A Small Town at the Turn of the Century
23 March - 29 June 2003
A Small Town at the Turn of the Century is the first solo show of Australian artist Simryn Gill's work in New Zealand. This exhibition of large photographs continues the artist's interest in exploring the relationship between nature and culture. In these works she revisits her old home town of Port Dickson in Malaysia, and renders familiar scenarios strange through her humorous interventions.
Simryn Gill was born in Singapore in 1959, and brought up in Malaysia. She currently lives and works in both Sydney and Malaysia, and has shown extensively across Australia, South East Asia, and Europe.
