Though caught in the twilight of peripheral vision this is a world as real as any dream, as concrete as any memory, and as fluid as any certainty". Mark Kimber

Suburban houses and city blocks burn with blinding white light as in UFO abduction scenes. Remote landscapes emblazoned by sheaths of illumination recall search and rescue disaster movies. The heavens appear to be opening for God. Early air and sea craft brave unchartered and unforgiving territories. These are small works that te… Stills GalleryAUStills Gallery +61 2-93317775 info@stillsgallery.com.au Wed-Sat 11-17 SEASON 11 16 Nov – 22 Dec 2011SEASON 11 Exhibition - 16 November to 22 December 2011 GILBERT GARCIN / PETRINA HICKS / MARK KIMBER / MARKETA LUSKACOVA / DANIELLE THOMPSON Each year Stills Gallery celebrates the passing of the year with a group exhibition drawn from Stills Gallery artists.

All That Glisters
2 June to 3 July 2010
Mark Kimber’s new work is fanciful and serious in equal measure. The photographs in All That Glisters present hermetically sealed mini dioramas that speak of our need to place value upon, control, and create memorabilia within our lives.

In his earlier work SUN PICTURES (Stills Gallery, 2007) Kimber used a plastic ‘Diana' camera to capture these scenes.

Kimber is compelled to find "sit… Stills GalleryAUStills Gallery +61 2-93317775 info@stillsgallery.com.au Wed-Sat 11-17 Solo Exhibition13 Jun – 14 Jul 2007Stills GalleryAUStills Gallery +61 2-93317775 info@stillsgallery.com.au Wed-Sat 11-17 Fictive Landscapes7 Sep – 8 Oct 2005Stills GalleryAUStills Gallery +61 2-93317775 info@stillsgallery.com.au Wed-Sat 11-17 MAKEbelieve - photographic fictions31 Jan – 13 Mar 2004Stills GalleryAUStills Gallery +61 2-93317775 info@stillsgallery.com.au Wed-Sat 11-17 Solo Exhibition2 Jul – 2 Aug 2003 |
