Justine Varga, Diffusion (125Y30M50C), 2023. Chromogenic photograph,132.7 x 103cm, edition 1 of 5 + 2AP. Courtesy: the artist and Hugo Michell Gallery, Adelaide.

Justine Varga creates photographic works from an intimate exchange between a strip of film and the world that comes to be inscribed on it. Employing analogue techniques, sometimes using a camera and sometimes not, her exposures capture instantaneous moments or distill lengthy durational periods. Her working process complicates both the act of looking and the experience of time. The photographs that result are therefore documents of transformation and remembering, being simultaneously situational and autobiographical.

Opening Event: Wednesday 7 February, 6 – 8pm.
