Weathered | Susan Bruce | Solo Exhibition
Steel giants dance against a backdrop of smog-choked skies, and giant worms weave in and out of cranes. Solitary figures symbolic of a collective consciousness. Through the haunting beauty of cranes, both as symbols of progress and harbingers of a dystopian reality Bruce explores despair, hope, and the profound impact of a decaying world on the individual psyche. Seeking to provoke both introspection and empathy, Bruce invites the viewer to confront their own relationship with the dystopian landscape and in exposing unseen layers of societal reconstruction and decay, asks, what might a possible future hold for us? Frame by frame Weathered offers space to meditate on what it is to be human within urban landscape.

Susan Bruce: My practice includes moving image work, experimental short films, collage, drawings, prints and artist books. My moving image work has been shown in Australia, Asia, Europe and the United States in galleries, video and film festivals, and public spaces. My collages, drawings, artist books and prints have been shown in Australia.
I am inspired by the textural qualities of film and the interrelationship between digital and analogue. My process upends the ‘normal’ hierarchy between analogue and digital: my collages serve as the material that is manipulated and textured to form my digital work, and vice versa.
