Brad Rimmer // Broomehill Agricultural Hall, Autumn 2021 (detail), 2023, archival pigment print, 100 x 134cm, ed. 3
Continuing his exploration of rural Australia, photographer Brad Rimmer’s 'Nowhere Near' reflects on a fleeting, bygone era in the Wheatbelt of Western Australia, and the remnants of the region’s languishing town halls. Once central to a farming community’s social life, they now lie destitute, maybe repurposed, decaying or even demolished. The exhibition and accompanying book serve as a poignant reflection on the past, what we leave behind and what remains.
