The Fall 2017-2018 | Exhibition

In February 2017, David Rosendale was granted Artist in Residency at the Alpine Resort of Falls Creek in Victoria. This opportunity was catalyst in a project which would ultimately document all 4 seasons and imbue the photographer’s role as observer throughout a year-long cycle of change. From this opportunity, a regime of minimum monthly visits to Falls Creek were passionately committed to, and on occasion, up to 3 times per month, to document experience, from the subtle changes in climate & quality of light, to the more tumultuous, the inhospitable and stark transformations. The transient nature of imagery sought in 2016’s expression of The Fall, and the tiny window in which this Winter imagery existed, lead a conceptual evolution for the body of work, to grander fascinations of seasonal change & metamorphosis. In winter, where a snow mask veils landscape, and pairs back the colour palette, the high plains reveal themselves throughout the seasons, their tumultuous moods and infinitely changing personalities. The imposing mountains can almost appear to be breathing, sensitive, exhibiting a pulse, and a temper. Ski infrastructure and the subtle human footprint in the region, plays supporting role to the majestic mountains, serving as reminder of the fragment human activity plays within the geography. Evidences of our coexistence however, remain. In the face of climate change & sustainability, this body of work seeks to document a naturally occurring eco system & simply activate the conversation for respect of the Alpine region. Where most of the human condition is chaotic & without reason, there is a certainty & purpose in the changing of the seasons. A metronomic rhythm to which all processes of life keep time.
