Brunswick Arts Space Presenting: Visions of Dreams & Life
By Steven Sandner.
An exhibition depicting surrealist landscapes and spectacular flora. Steven Sandner’s range of work represents vast landscapes contrasting natural expanses with urban jungles. This expressive form of photography explores the themes of power, status, class and revelations.
Brunswick Arts is pleased to present Visions of Dreams & Life, a photography exhibition by the Germany born artist, Steven Sandner.
The exhibition takes place in the vibrant city of Melbourne between the 11th and 26th of September 2009. The Brunswick Arts Space Gallery will host the first public exhibition of Steven Sandner with the closing reception held from 6pm Friday 26th of September.
The presented works present depict powerful undertows of the natural world; from the raw power of great storms to the captivating charm of the small and often forgotten flora of our existence. Sandner’s photography explores current social issues such as climate change, human identity and the continued protection of world heritage sites.
The themes that surround Sandner’s works portray the landscapes and its complexities. Entering the gallery, you are surrounded by the combined effects of instability, inspiration, drama, identity, desolation and the desperate search for hope and purity.
This engaging exhibition depicts images with the raw sense of emotion and fills the audience with a sense of rapture and questioning to whether there is more to our existence.
