- Summary:
-
This large format work is the first publication in book form of photographer Stephen Dupont's long-term project to document the effects of climate change on Australia. The images detail ecological events such as bushfires, dust storms and floods from locations across New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria and Tasmania that left ravaged earth and devastated communities in their wake, making Dupont realise the inevitability of the shift in conversation from 'Is climate change happening?' to 'Is it too late?' His work is inspired by his young daughter Ava - a climate activist - who contributes a poem to the book. Through his lens, Dupont has captured the environmental, social and economic tolls that have been taken, with nature's colour palette in the aftermath of destruction imbuing the works with a surreal ambiance. -Based on text for an exhibition for 21 images for the book at the aMBUSH Gallery, Kambri Cultural Centre, Australian National University, 6 August 2021 to 23 January 2022.
