I
went wandering on the other side of the gorge today to take some photos and
walk down to the Basin. I veered off the track to go exploring and ended up
sighting a person sitting in front of a little tent. I was startled to see
someone and thought I would leave them nestled away in the little sheltered
spot they had found. As I made my way back to the path and continued walking I
began to imagine that there were people sprinkled all throughout the gorge
tucked away where no one (except bumbling old me) would find them. Maybe there
are a lot more artists in residence here than I thought. Perhaps I should start
doing torch signals down the gorge after lights out.
A blog by Jennifer Rooke documenting her residency and travels in Tasmania, 2014. For two weeks she will live and work at Kings Bridge Cottage in Cataract Gorge, exploring and recording the surrounding environment to produce a body of work which records her personal experience of being alone in the landscape.
