Artist Statement

An ensemble of figures appear - each engaged in modes of performative action, where elements of dance, spatial practice and music hint at the choreographic potential of the collective presence, of bringing the body into other forms of becoming, of something ‘other’. The group’s actions are in part developed from a number of sources. Themes and motifs suggest alternative systems of belief that I have explored in readings about modernist counter culture, architecture, environmentalism and cinema.

Splicing the image from one into another is experimented with, suggesting a shuffling of time frames - past into a possible future, future into the past.

About the Artist

Rosalind Drummond works across expanded photography, performative action and video within a practice that explores spatial and natural environments.

In 2023, Drummond co-curated a series of performances with Storm Gold at CAVES Gallery, Melbourne. In 2024 she was selected as a finalist in the Bowness Photography Prize 2024, Museum of Australian Photography, Melbourne and PHOTO24 Festival, Melbourne, culminating in an exhibition at CAVES Gallery and she commenced an Artist Residency with PhotoAccess Canberra.

In April 2025, Drummond will present a solo show at Mary Cherry Gallery, Melbourne, followed by an Artist Residency at Point Nepean National Park, facilitated by Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery.
