‘Best Photographic Work’

Best Photographic Work – ‘Fewa Lake, Pokhara, Nepal’ by Katherine Seppings

I won ‘Best Photographic Work’ at the Rotary Castlemaine Art Show on 5 June, for a photograph I took of Fewa Lake, Pokhara, Nepal, at sunset, 1998, looking across at the Annapurna mountain range.

‘This quiet and serene work captures the atmosphere of the dusk over the water in this remote place so well. You can feel the sense of stillness and cripsness in the air that I felt to be quite meditative. I particularly liked the composition, the water in the foreground, and the subtle tonal shifts in the layers of mountainous landscape. I also like the energy of the cloud hovering across the snowy mountain peak that can be seen towering in the top corner.’

Brickworks Gallery Historical Show

The 40th Anniversary of the first exhibition held at ‘The Bricky’ is being celebrated with a ‘Historical Show’ at the Castlemaine Brickworks Gallery this December.
It was an honour and a joy to curate it.
Of the twenty artists selected from Castlemaine Artists Co-Op/Inc (1980-1992) – painters, printmakers, photographers, potters, sculptors – many are recognised nationally and internationally.
Castlemaine Artists Co-Operative was a group of 30 artists and craftspeople who came to the district in the 1960s and 70s. They held their shows at the old brickworks in 1981, 82 and 83. In 1986, with more artists in the area, the group became Castlemaine Artists Incorporated. In 1992 the group folded and merged into the fledgling Castlemaine Fringe.
I am recording, archiving and writing the History of Castlemaine Arts (1960-90).
