Over het boek
Mirima landscapes captured in Robert Lazarus Lanes photography conceal and open out, always at the point of glowing or disappearing. In this photographic world of East Kimberly noir, there is no opening scene, nor centre, and no particular image that grounds all others. There is only what remains on the ground - the re-appearance of light and a picture of the world that is incomplete. By walking around with a hand-held device, Lane records the reality of being there, but uses imagery to depict how places mask themselves from observers. He has documented Northern Australia in a manifold of forms by picturing the world through its emergent qualities. Photographing persistent dark voids, sandstone peaks and resilient signs of life, depicts Kununurra conditions interacting with Mirima formations. While specific in its location, the book forms a wider allegory for Australian tensions between contested properties, hidden histories and layered landscapes. The intent is to record experiences at the threshold of private and public spheres. What emerges are veiled worlds and observable realities coexisting in culturally significant places. A warning to Miriwoong people, this book was created within the bounds of Mirima National Park and features images of cultural sites.
