Renata Buziak: Unfolding Rhythms

Overview

When it comes to the display of a-grade artistic initiative, in a setting that's cosy as pie, The Hold Artspace knows how to deliver. And when it comes to jaw-dropping, visually confronting, finely crafted nature photography, Polish-born Renata Buziak knows just the same.

Unfolding Rhythms is the latest showcase by Buziak, drawing on the infinite - and sometimes unnoticeable - progressions of nature’s rhythms in various frequencies and times. In photographic sequences that would have National Geographic fuming in jealousy, Buziak uses experimental biochrome processes and time-lapse photography to expose the graphic composition or organic decomposition. The plants used in this piece hold a special significance to the Quandamooka people of Minjerribah (North Stradbroke Island) for their traditional and medicinal purposes - the cultural layers of this exhibit make it just as rich as the work itself.

The complex and completely visual take on these humble pieces of nature, make Buziak a conductor and creator of one simple question – what is the importance of the relationship between ourselves and the natural world?
