“Remapping Australia”
Annita Furey
27 Aug → 11 Sept 2004

The focus of this exhibition is the relationship between geographic and cultural space.

remapping Australia is an ongoing project (since 2000) about the psychology of topographic space; in particular the South Sea Island we know as Australia.

The original image for this work occurred during a residence in Paris, looking back at my country of birth.
