For the last two decades Bernadette and Mark have worked together and individually on several art projects in locations from Darwin to Singapore and across Australia.  As practitioners with diverse mediums and styles, they have dealt with several themes and issues. This current project at Darlington Installation Project entitled “Ways and Means” resumes our collaboration entwining ways and means.

 

Bernadette has a masterful command of the language of photography. As the 2024 winner of the Hazelhurst Art Prize, apparently the first time by a photographer in this competition shows Bernadette offers a way forward in the medium rarely explored by other practitioners. Her works combine a photographer’s intense concentration on the moment with a painter’s ongoing sense of diverse possibilities to create a unique expressive passage of aesthetic language that defies categorisation.
