Photos you have to see to believe

Macedon Ranges photographers Ralph Ewart and Deborah Mullins look at life through different lenses than most people.

Their latest exhibition, Seeing is Believing, open this Thursday (October 20) at the Black Anther Gallery in Woodend.

The collection of works by the two experienced photographic artists includes photos that blur the lines between illusion and reality.

Mullins says her works, which include windows set on landscapes, provide “insights into what lies immediately in front of the viewer but includes other realities from the same moment in time”.

“Photography today can be anything – what we see, can be real, or perhaps not.

“Truth in photography can be an elusive notion.

“The meaning of the photograph can be so easily changed by the context placed in and around them, creating a whole new story.”

Among Ewart’s art are pieces that place animals in unusual locations.

“His rich imagination leaves a huge scope for viewers to interpret the story in many individual ways, often without logic and reason, but with a playful and meaningful narrative,” Mullins says.

Seeing is Believing will run until November 7 and will be open from Thursday to Monday, 10am-5pm.
