Celebrate the exhibition launch of Fire Scars, with artist Renae Saxby.
Join Senior Curator Kim Blunt in conversation about the making of the exhibition.
Renae Saxby is a documentary and music photographer based on Wonnarua Country. Her work delves into the human experience, spanning intimate portraiture, live performance, and remote landscapes with a strong emphasis on cultural and environmental preservation.
In this exhibition, Saxby examines fire as both a destructive and regenerative force. Created during a period of personal upheaval, this work merges intimate narrative with landscape. Through immersive photography and sound, the exhibition reflects on grief, resilience, and the potential for healing held within fire’s transformative presence.
MRAG events are proudly sponsored by the friends at Boydell’s Wines and Heaps Normal.
