In his series, Remnant, photographer Christopher Rimmer descends into the Australian outback. Set against the backdrop of covid, the resulting photographs are portraits of isolation, the Australian sublime and spent ambition – abandoned service stations, unfinished railways lines and rusted debris.

The poetically titled ‘The End of God, South Australia’ is a portrait of a crumbling church. As bleached as the parched desert, this church lies abandoned – a ghost of a lost future, ambition and faith thwarted by the harsh Australian climate.

An internationally acclaimed Britain-born, South African raised and now Victoria based artist, Rimmer’s work is a compelling find for collectors of photography, contemporary landscapes and those interested in the complexity of Australian history.
