BRIDIE GILLMAN‘s From here is a collection of photographs that reflect the ambiguities which exist within our notions of place. Filled with signs of life, but devoid of any people, Gillman’s scenes of in-betweenness revel in their enigmatic nature. Displaying evidence of human trace in this way is an intrinsic element of the series, making the tension between absence and presence tangible. Gillman deftly employs the ebb and flow of liminality to give tone to the suite of works, which are united by their highly formal approach to form and colour as well as their refined and striking compositions.
