Chris Walters: Halcyon

Take an escape from your day with these dreamy landscapes.

Overview

Photographer Chris Walters put together this dreamy, dreamy exhibition with one aim in mind: to calm you down. That's right. So, drop whatever you're doing, take a deep breath and scurry down to Black Eye Gallery sometime before July 24.

Each photograph focuses on a single detail — that tiny thing that gives you a powerful sense of escape — and, in so doing, hopes to transport you. "When isolated, these details evoke sensations of place without being tied to one particular place," Walters writes. Expect to see misty sunsets, impossibly still seas, low-lying clouds and rolling hills splashed with sunshine.

Walters studied at the Sydney College of the Arts before becoming a full-time commercial photographer and head of a successful media company. He's also worked in architectural representation and as a film director, but, over the past ten years, has been putting more and more energy into his fine art.
