Steve Parish: As One
The work of a renowned nature photographer becomes an exhibition of fine art.
Overview
There is no name more synonymous with the term ‘nature photographer’ than Steve Parish. His vivid images of landscapes, wildlife and sealife in Australia have adorned books, calendars, postcards and more for decades. For the first time, As One celebrates his work in a different context — that of a fine art exhibition.
Parish is a true naturalist, and it is only through his deep connection to the land — hiking, camping and diving into some of the country’s wildest places — that he has been able to capture such a diverse breadth of flora and fauna. This connection provides the inspiration for his creative work, as well as respite and calm from periods of emotional and mental struggles the photographer has experienced. A portion of proceeds from the exhibition’s sales will go to the Queensland Alliance for Mental Health Inc. to assist others on the same journey.
As One exhibits at Brisbane Powerhouse from 8 September to 4 October.
