Beyond the Visible: Renmark Gardens in Infrared
The Renmark Rose Festival, Renmark Paringa Council and Country Arts SA are partnering to create an exciting arts program for the 2018 Festival and to provide opportunities for local artists. The Riverland has a multitude of beautiful gardens against the backdrop of a dramatic landscape that provides continual inspiration for photographers. Beyond The Visible: Renmark Gardens in Infrared is an opportunity for local photographers to capture this environment with a different eye and push their creative boundaries.
Mentor Sam Oster is a highly respected Adelaide based photographer who specialises in arts and entertainment, as well as commercial photography. Her work spans a broad range of genres, but she primarily works in the creative industries – film, TV, theatre, music and dance. Sam teaches photography at a variety of institutions and has been involved in a wide range of arts residencies and community projects.
