Tomio Nitto @ his Camera Show
May 14, 2013

Shan Hai Jing, literally translated as Collection of Mountains and Seas, is an ancient text on geography and mythology in China.
This exhibition was initiated by Holly Lee, who first started her series of photographs titled Shan Hai Jing in 2010. Inspired by the work of Fiona and Erik, Holly found many similarities in the mythology of their work, so she suggested that together they adopt Shan Hai Jing as a theme to create a body of new work to be shown together.
The Opening Reception is Saturday, 16 March, 2013, from 3-6 pm.

“Posers” is a group exhibition that explores portraiture as a method of documentation and self-expression.
Local artists, illustrators and photographers will go beyond capturing physical likeness, challenging a traditional convention by using a diverse range of visual language – both cultural and contemporary. In examining the poser’s subtleties, the artist not only reveals the subject’s personality and history, but also his/her personal significance to the artist.

Fiona will be showing a selection of works created in the last ten years. The exhibition includes paintings and drawings from the series Bride of Gene 2002 and The Virtuous – Rise of the Matriarchy 2007. These works explore the elastic resiliency of female identity and the idea of traumatic memories living in the tissue of the body.
The show runs from February 7 through to March 9, 2013
