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 exhausted ambition – abandoned service stations, unfinished railways lines and rusted debris.

In ‘Thirstland’, Rimmer captures a mysterious sculpture in the orange outback. Deflated, crumpled, receding – the subject of this photograph is alienesque, a trace of a plan flattened by the harsh Australian sun. For the Rimmer, progress - rooted in the desire to always be creating - can come at threat to the environment.

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